Abstract

THE ninth International Ornithological Congress, which will be attended by ornithologists from every part of the the world, will be held in Rouen on May 9—14. Later, the members of the Congress will proceed to Paris and the programme will terminate with a long excursion to the bird reserves in the Camargue. All questions concerning the preservation of birds will be dealt with at the meetings of the International Committee for Bird Preservation, which will be held immediately before the Congress. These meetings are confined to the official delegates of the national sections, which are operating in twenty-eight different countries, of the Committee. In connexion with the Congress an international exhibition of bird pictures is being held in Paris on May 14—29. British ornithological art will be represented by the works of Roland Green, G. E. Lodge, Peter Scott, Archibald Thorburn (lent by Messrs. W. F. Embleton) and A. W. Seaby (lent by Mr. A. W. Harvey Brown, Stevens and Brown Gallery).
