He retired as Admiral in 1875. He was appointed midshipman in HMS Hecla, under George Lyon, on the British Naval Northwest Passage Expedition, 1821-1823 (leader William Edward Parry), sent by the Admiralty to search for a passage along the west coast of the unexplored Foxe Basin, north from Repulse Bay. He returned north with Parry as midshipman in HMS Fury on the British Naval Northwest Passage Expedition, 1824-1825, sent to seek a passage by following Prince Regent Inlet to the American mainland coast. Serving again as midshipman in HMS Hecla on the British Naval North Polar Expedition (leader William Edward Parry), 1827, Bird was a member of the party attempting to reach the North Pole over the ice with two boat-sledges, Enterprise and Endeavour; Lieutenant James Clark Ross being commander of the second crew. Parry found himself navigating through a pack of constantly moving small ice floes and against a southward current which moved the ice four miles south daily. On 26 July 1827 they calculated they had managed to advance the position only one mile northward in the previous five days, and Parry was forced to turn back to the ship. Not having reached his goal, Parry nonetheless set a new mark for the farthest north attained, 82§ 45', which was not surpassed until 1876 by a party from the expedition under George Strong Nares. The little notebook in this wallet is signed and dated by Bird on 27 July 1827, giving the bearing of this new Polar landmark. (1)

*Wembley Arena. An archive of approximately 100 vintage gelatin silver print photographs relating to the construction of the Empire Pool and Sports Arena, Wembley, 1933-34, the initial photographs showing the site to be used, followed by trench and foundation digging, the turning of the first sod by Arthur 'Mr Wembley' Elvin, the erection of the steel girders, concrete, indoor seating, etc., plus some photographs of the construction and testing of the track outdoors (later installed in the stadium) and one photograph of the pool being used by the public one month after opening in 1934, the majority of construction photographs with ink dates and signature of H.W. David, mostly 15 x 20 cm (6 x 8 ins), a few with corner chip or creases but generally in good condition An important collection of photographs, probably mostly unpublished, documenting the construction of the Empire Pool and Sports Arena, Wembley. The building's more famous original neighbour, Wembley Stadium, was built for the British Empire exhibition of 1924, took only 10 months and was ready for the 1923 "White Horse" FA Cup Final between Bolton and West Ham on 28 April 1923. An estimate 300,000 people turned up and a superhuman performance from PC George Scorey and his white horse, Billy, prevented a catastrophe. The Empire Exhibition was a great success but after all was said and done the stadium was pronounced financially unviable. It was rescued by a young man name Arthur Elvin who had worked at the exhibition, selling cigarettes in a kiosk. When the exhibition ended, Elvin started buying up the deserted pavilions and selling off the contents for scrap. After the stadium went into liquidation Elvin raised money to buy it and became its managing director. Elvin had the right mixture of vision and pragmatism to make Wembley work. He realised that the stadium needed a smaller, weatherproof venue to complement the stadium and so the Empire Pool and Sports Arena came into being, opening in 1934. Alongside the big football matches the venues now included greyhound racing and speedway. When the Olympics came to London in 1948, Wembley hosted the opening ceremony and many other events. The Empire Pool was last used at these Games. The building is now used for music, comedy and family entertainment and for sport. It was renovated, along with the Wembley Stadium, as part of a regeneration, opening to the public again on 2 April 2006. The building was renamed The SSE Arena on 1 June 2014. (approx. 100)
