26S ORNITHOLOGY. 



WAGTAIL. 



A species of wagtail is often seen in company with cat- 

 tle, " following them and gathering the insects that are 

 beaten up by the beasts' foot.'* It is common in the Pro- 

 vinces, though I am not certain of the species, but the 

 one Capt. Phayre found in Arracan was 

 Budytes leumn. 



WATER-WAGTAIL. 



A water-wagtail bearing considerable resemblance to 

 the European bird, is abundant in the neighborhood of 

 Maulmain. It heralds in the dry season, always leaving 

 the Coast in the rains, and returning again at their close.
