THE GARDEN WARBLER 37 



tion south of this Warbler begins in August, and is 

 completed, so far as our islands are concerned, in 

 September. 



The Garden Warbler has the general colour of 

 the upper parts olive-brown, darkest on the wings 

 and tail ; the under parts and a stripe over the eye 

 are buffish-brown, shading into greyish-white on 

 the centre of the breast and belly : the axillaries 

 and under wing-coverts are buff. The female is 

 similar to the male in colour, and the total length 

 of both sexes is about six inches.
