Large, very fine studies of head and leg of swan; "Male from Lord [?]Holmesley, killed at Nairn"; "Polish swan adult, Sept. 30, 1872"; "Professor Owen who dissected this . . ."; "Specimen now in British Museum." Probably not from the Gould establishment, and perhaps related to Professor Owen's work.
