113. Coracias garrulus garrulus. Roller. 
Numerous, passing through Abu Zabaal from 8 August 
onwards. Never observed there in the spring, but was 
common at Kantara at the end of April 1919. 
114. Ceryle rudis rudis. Pied Kingfisher. 
Common and resident. I took a clutch of four eggs at 
Abu Zabaal on 26 April, 1917, and another of five fresh 
eggs at Inchas on 12 May, 1918. The nesting-hole was 
about four feet long in a bank overhanging a canal. 
[The only clutch taken was at Ayat on 11 May, 1910, and 
consisted of four eggs slightly incubated. The nest-hole 
was in the Nile bank a few feet above the water.—R. S.]
