XLIII.—The Birds of Spitsbergen, as at present determined

| Summary: | I do not think it needful to give, in this Introduction, more than an outline of the voyage to which it refers. ‘The Ibis’ cannot fairly be asked to concern itself with personal adventures, but rather with an account of the birds. We left Tromsö on June 15th, sighted Bear Island about one o'clock on the following day, and on the 17th inst. fell in with light scattered ice in N. lat. 76° 10′. All that day we went through the ice, sighting, towards evening, Horn Mountain and the Spitsbergen cliffs. |
