Cloudless & hot but not humid. The

  C. [Caroline Brewster] & I worked through forenoon

  The Red-eyed Vireo & the Goldfinch
are the only birds in full song
now but I hear a Robin every
evening about sunset & a Flicker,
usually, in the early morning,
while a Chippy sings occasionally.
One or two Swift appear over the
Garden every evening. Crows are
abundant, noisy & familiar
cawing for cherries in flocks of 5 to
7 & making a great clamor.

Forenoon sunny, calm & oppressively
hot. Afternoon rainy with cool N.E. [Northeast] wind.
The rain began at 1.30 & was heavy at times.
  To Boston at 10 A.M. Spent over 2 hours
in our office. Saw Arthur. We decided
to invest $5000 of Estate money in City
of Boston bonds. Lunched at "Bunch O'
Grapes." Met Leonard Metcalf on street.
Took 1.51 train for Concord. Dr. Tyler
joined me in smoking car at Arlington
& gave me latest news of the hybrid Warbler
broods in the Lexington swamp. Faxon
shot one of young two days ago. It is a
nearly typical "leuca." I left train at
W. Bed. [West Bedford] & crossed river to Ball's Hill to stay
at cabin. Walk to Pine Park & Pine Ridge
before supper. Tanager & Song Sparrow singing.
Only a few gypsy moths laying, except on
Bensen's knoll where they were thick.
A long-billed Marsh Wren began singing
across river from cabin at 5 P.M. & kept it
up until dark & then from 10 P.M. to midnight.
