15 [degrees] - 34 [degrees] Fine
Clear, calm, dry cold.
  Spent day in Museum
working on field list books
substituting fresh sheets for
those that have been filled,
writing headings etc. All this
is work that I regularly do or
try to do at the beginning of
each year. Walter used to do 
most of it for me.
  Townsend writes me of seeing
4 Bald pates, a Ring neck & a
Canvas-back, besides a number of
Mallards (presumably park birds), in
a small pond in Brookline yesterday.
I shall try to see them to-morrow.
  Only one bird, a Flicker, noted
in the Garden to-day. The 
sleighing continues perfect.
