This handsome Starling appears to be migratory and to 
visit this part of Africa from October onwards. It is not 
present in the country during the dry season. It is usually 
to be found on fruit-trees in “ Msitu.”

369. CoRVULTUR ALBICOLLIS. 
Corvultur albicollis (Lath.) ; Neave, loc. cit. p. 103. 
This Crow occurs over a wide area, but is nowhere very 
common. It frequents hilly country and is usually seen in 
pairs. 
370. CORVUS SCAPULATUS. 
Corvus scapulatus Daud.; Neave, loc. cit. p. 103. 
This bird is very local, and seems, where it does occur, to 
be more than half domesticated, as I have never seen it away 
from the outskirts of native villages. It is enormously 
abundant in the villages on the shores and islands of 
Lake Bangweolo. It is extremely tame, and may be seen 
perched on the roofs of the huts or on the ground within a 
few feet of natives.
