The European Hoopoe (UFUPA I]POPS). Tib.—" U-fu-p- 



The Hoopoe is to be seen in this part of Tibet in summer only^ 

 The first bird I noticed one year appeared on 28th March. It 

 nests at Gyantse (13,100) in June, in holes in walls and cliffs. 



The Lammergeier (GYPAIITUS BARBATU8). Tib.—" Gha 

 ho." 



On the 27th April 1908, in a cliff near Gyantse, at a height ot 

 14,800 feet, a nest was found which contained one young bird; in 

 the same nest there was a single egg on 17th February 1909. 



The Himalayan Eough-legged Buzzard (ARGHIBUTUO 

 HEMIPTILOPUS). Tib.— "C'Aa Kyi.'' 



A note and photograph of what I believed to be the nest of this 

 bird was published in Vol. XIX, p. 523; but on comparing the 

 eggs with those of A. liemiiMlo'ims, I find that mine are much 

 larger. The bird, which was identified in Bombay as A. liemif- 

 tilopus, was shot near the nest the day after the eggs were taken 

 and I believed it to be the bird which I had seen in the nest. I 

 must however have shot another bird, and my eggs consequently 

 are unidentified. 



The Black-eared Kite (MILVUS MELANOTIC). Tib.— 

 ' ' Ping-gyu-ma . " 



Many nests were seen in May in the trees round the villages on 

 the Gyantse plain (13,100), and one earlier nest on the 17th 

 April. The nests always contained two eggs. 



The Kestrel (TINNUNGULUS ALAUBABIUS). 



I took one nest with four eggs in a cliff at Gyantse on the 23rd 

 of May 1908. 



The Osprey {PANBION HALIAETUS). 



Ospreys were seen at Gyantse every year in April and May, 

 but did not nest there. I have also seen one in the Chumbi 

 Valley. 



(1) Killed only at Gyantse and north of the Tangla. 



(2) Killed only in the Chambi Valley.
