Ther. [Thermometer Fri. [Friday] Feb. 12, 1909 [February 12, 1909] Wea. [Weather]
20 [degrees]  Brilliantly clear. Calm.
  Spent day in Museum working
on Wigeon article. Had to rewrite 
most of it because of Millais's
incorrect use of the word "shoulder"
as applied to wing of wigeon. This
had misled me in various ways
& I detected it only this morning.
No callers. C. [Caroline Brewster] Emmy & I went
out to Museum at 8 P.M. &
I showed them some lantern
slides & birds.
  There was a skunk abroad this
afternoon. We smelt him very
strongly in the Garden about sunset.
I wonder where he was & what
stirred him up at that hour.
  Heard Chickadee in Garden & 
saw a Flicker there.
