  In A.M. rambled alone through the woods
near the house looking chiefly at plants.
In P.M. Dan & I walked to Mc.Intosh's [McIntosh's] &
thence to Knight's ice pond where we found
a pair of Seiurus motacilla feeding six fledged 
young in a nest in a low gravel tank. The pond 
alive with newts. found a single plant of 
Saururus cernuus in full flower on the edge of a
wood path. Knight's field blue with Echium vulgare.
Both plants new to me. A wonderful show
of blooming mountain laurel along a brook.
