 birds begin to ])uild about the beginning of INIay. There is 

 occasionally a second brood. The birds take their departure 

 with the common House-Swallows.

The ]5ohemian Waxwingis of irregular occurrence. I saw 

 a newly-caught bird in the possession of a native at Shan- 

 haikuan on the 23rd of April, 1911. On the 21st of Novem- 

 ber, 1915, there were a few for sale in the market, and again 

 on the 21st of February, 1916; ;dl were females. On the 

 12th of March, 1916, a single bird appeared at the port and 

 remained there until the 21st of the month, when it was shot 

 by my over-zealous collector. I had a live example, procured 

 that spring, which I kept until my departure from Chin- 

 waiigtao, when I gave it to a friend at Shanghai together 

 with most of my other live birds.

The White-faced Wagtail is not often seen near Chin- 

 wangtao, but it is common inland among the mountains, 

 where it nests. A nest and three eggs were brought 

 to me from the mountains north of the port on the 

 11th of May, 1917.

The Streak-eyed Wagtail is common on passage from 

 about the 25th of April to the middle of May. The birds are 

 then in full or nearly complete summer plumage. In autumn 

 it passes with the last of the Yellow Wagtails from about the 

 middle of September to the middle of October. I have 

 exam])les from Chieu An dated 7 April.
