This Chat, though found on the Gooban, is much more 

 numerous on the plateau, and we found it also on the open 

 spaces on Wagga Mountain, 8000 ft. above the sea.

This Chat, which has not previously been recorded from 

 Somaliland, was, curiously enough, very numerous during 

 our last visit.

The Desert-Chat is very plentiful on the Berbera Plain in 

 January, where it was to be seen in all directions perched, in 

 true Chat-fashion, on the tops of the stunted bushes.

This little Chat seems to delight in the small bare hills 

 that dot the Maritime Plain, but I never noticed it on the 

 green slopes of the Goolis.
