Knot - 1894

Tringa canutus

An autumn and winter visitor.

Flocks of Knots appear on the sand flats and oozes at the end of August and beginning of September from their breeding station in the far north. Mr. Tracy states that they were to be seen commonly every autumn near Pembroke. Also on the sands at Goodwick, &c. The flocks are foolishly tame when they first arrive.
