The course o£ this immigration could not be traced through 

 the country, but the evidence,, such as it is, points to its 

 having followed the same course as its predecessors. 



After that date there was again a lull for a few days, 

 till, on the 21st of May, a final succession of immigratory 

 waves arrived on the south coast, but the bulk of the birds 

 having now passed, the numbers were less and the immi- 

 gration only lasted for three nights. It began on the Dorset 

 coast on May the 21st, a second wave struck the Hampshire 

 coast on the 22nd, and a third reached the Cornish coast on 

 the 23rd. 



Lastly, a few stragglers, in company with Garden- Warblers, 

 passed the Hampshire lights on May the 26th. 



Note. — In the map the points and dates of arrival of the 3rd immi- 

 gration are all noted. But the course of the birds through the 

 country is indicated for the earlier arrivals only.
