62. X Haliaetus vocifer. Sea-Eagle. 

 Sind. "inkwazi." 



The Sea-Eagle is rare, but I have notes of its occurrence 

 in April and June. On the latter occasion I saw a pair 

 perched on top of a kopje, well away from water, but in 

 spite of the time of the year, I have little doubt that it is 

 not a breeding species with us. 



63. X Milvus segyptius. Yellow-billed Kite. 

 Sind. " umzwazwa." 



Although a common enough summer visitor to other 

 districts of Southern Rhodesia, I have very few notes of this 

 Kite's appearance in the Matopos, and in 1912 I did not 

 see it later than February 5. 



64. Elanus cseruleus. Black-shouldered Kite. 



A rarity. I observed one close to the Dam on January 

 16, 1912. 



65. J Falco minor. South-African Peregrine Falcon. 

 Another rare species. However, I shot a male on the 



25th of June, 1908, in the hills close to Fortusher. 



66. X Falco biarmicus. South-African Lanner. 

 Uncommon, but I have seen it a good many times within 



the hills. On one occasion I saw a Lanner repeatedly 

 swoop without success at a party of spreeuws {Amydrus) . 



0)7. X Falco subbuteo. Hobby. 



A solitary Hobby put in an appearance at Lucydale 

 on the 1st of February, 1912. 



68. Cerchneis rupicoloides. Large African Kestrel. 

 Tinnunculus rujncoloides (Smith) ; Scl. iii. p. 276. 



This Kestrel is rather rare and confined to the open 

 country, where I have seen it on Westacre and Vriegevicht 

 farms. 



69. X Cerchneis rupicola. South African Kestrel. 

 Tinnunculus rupicolus (Daud.) ; Scl. iii. p. 276. 

 Common and resident throughout, and especially numerous
