ALBINISTIC YELLOW WAGTAIL IN YORKSHIRE. 
On August 15th, 1917, just below Hardrow Force, in 
Wensleydale, I saw a peculiar Yellow Wagtail (Motacilla f. 
rayt), Which may be worth recording. It was with normal 
Yellow Wagtails, running about among some cows, and 
looked most conspicuous at a little distance. The whole 
of the wings and tail appeared to be pure white, head and 
nape greyish, and the rest of the plumage a paler yellow 
than the normal colour. Judging from its markings, I took 
it to be a male bird. H. G. ALEXANDER. 
WAXWINGS IN KENT AND SOMERSET, 
On November 4, 1917, while walking from Sandwich to 
Minster, I came across seven Waxwings (Bombycilla garrulus) 
feeding on hawthorn berries, of which there is a heavy crop 
this year. J. VINCENT. 
A Waxwine was shot at Banwell, Scmerset, on January 
3rd, 1918. F. A. BRuTonN.

On June 16th, 1917, I found a remarkable nest of the

Essex.
