WITH reference to the statement of Herr Adolf Ebeling (apud the correspondence from the New York Evening Post, quoted in your issue of February 24, vol. xxiii. p. 387), that the fact that wagtails in their wintering ``came to Africa, and especially to Nubia and Abysssinia, was then unknown to us,'' permit the remark that as ``then'' must refer to a date not earlier than 1850 (when Heuglin went to Egypt), the appearance of wagtails on the west coast of Africa, as far south as Cape Verd, had been observed more than half a century before.
