Orn. I. P. 158 (1833). The " Stormcock, " as this bird is popularly called, is one of those few species which, during the progress of very recent times, has extended its range in the British Islands. This extension has taken a northerly direction, and may be attributed to a variety of causes tree-planting and the laying- out of shrubberies and pleasure-grounds being possibly the chief encourage- ment. So far as the earlier history of the Missel-Thrush has been recorded, the bird was an inhabita...nt of the sheltered places, the pastoral districts of the lowlands; but from them it has gradually spread itself over more isolated and northerly plantations, woods, and coppices, up to the moor- land wastes. It may now be said to be a common bird in most sufficiently wooded localities throughout Great Britain and Ireland, becoming rather more local and rarer in the extreme north. The Missel-Thrush has gradually spread itself over the Western Isles of Scotland. In Skye Missel-Thrushes were fairly numerous up to the severe winter of 1879-80, since which time the birds have almost entirely disappeared again.
