A common resident in the District, nesting on the 
Samana in summer, and occurring from August till April 
along the foot of the hills and on stony ground generally. 
From January till the end of March it is also found commonly 
about cultivated lands. It perches readily in trees. It 
varies a good deal in size and colour. In February 1908 there 
were flocks of peculiarly dusky individuals on the grass- 
farm. Nos. 566 and 569 are examples of this dark-coloured 
Pipit.

A summer visitor, arriving early in March and breeding 
in numbers on the grass-farm and other suitable places. 
Colonel Battray must, I think, have mistaken A. cam - 
pestris (which I have shot at Thall) for this species.
