THE GAEDEN-WAEBLER {Sylvia hortensts). 



The earliest recorded movement was from the Isle of May (I'ife), on 

 August the 5th. Our summer residents began to move south shortly 

 after the middle of the month : a few were noted at Bardsey Light 

 (Carnarvon) on the 14th/15th, some were seen up to the 25th in Radnor 

 and the 26th in N. Staffordshire, while the majority of the local residents 

 left W. Kent about the 23rd, and small numbers of emigrants were 

 noted at St. Catherine's Light (Isle of Wight) on the 26th/27th and 

 27th/t;8th. 



Emigration was in progress throughout September : many were noted 

 passing in N. Some; set on the 14th, 15th and 16th, the largest numbers 

 being seen on the 16th, while at St. Catherine's Light emigrants were 

 reported on the 9th/10th, 15th/16th, 16th/17th, 17th/18th and 20th/21st, 

 the majority passing between the 15th aud 18th. A single bird was also 

 taken at that light on October the 9th/10th. 



The remaining records relate to the passage of migrants down the
