From June to the middle of September I did not observe 

 this species on the Red Sea. The first were seen at the end 

 of September near Ras Belul (13° N.L.), in small flocks on the 

 marshy coast, some individuals being still partly in summer 

 dress. In October and November it was very frequent in the 

 winter plumage near Zeila, Berbera, Bender Gam, &c.

Very probably seen, but not distinctly recognized, near Ras 

 Belul.

A few seen at Dahalak and near Massaua in September. 

 More frequent at Amphila, in Asab Bay. Sometimes even in 

 flocks of some hundreds. Naked parts about the beak and the 

 eyes, deep rose-coloured ; iris pale yellow ; head and neck of a 

 deep aurora-red.
