Riassunto

The report provides extensive data on the timing, routes, and frequency of bird migrations during the spring and autumn of 1884. The authors analyze sightings, noting environmental conditions such as weather patterns that influenced migratory behaviors. Detailed records of specific species, including their arrival and departure times across different regions, offer insights into the complexity and regularity of migration patterns. The report also includes information on factors like wind direction, which significantly impacts the birds’ migratory journeys. This work represents an early, systematic approach to ornithological study, with a particular focus on migration as a field of scientific inquiry. By consolidating reports from multiple locations, the authors created a foundational resource that contributed to a better understanding of avian behavior and migration ecology. This sixth report remains valuable for researchers in historical ornithology and ecology, highlighting the challenges and achievements of early fieldwork and collaborative data gathering in the natural sciences.
