Fine
Clear & cool with fresh N.W. [Northwest] wind.
Ground frozen at sunrise.
  Crows heard cawing in early morning
& a Flicker heard calling about 9 A.M.
No other native birds noted in Garden
and only 2 House Sparrows seen there.
The very last of the south-bound
migrants have apparently departed yet
we have had no really wintery weather
as yet & general conditions remain
much as they were a month ago.
  Spent day in Museum putting the
last finishing touches on my paper
on "Courtship of the American Golden-eye"
which i mailed to Grinnell this evening.
for publication in the Condor.
C. [Caroline Brewster] in big room of Museum all

solitary dinner.

Cambridge.
Ther. [Thermometer] Sat. [Saturday] Dec. 3, 1910 [December 3, 1910] Wea. [Weather]
20 [degrees] Fine
Clear & cold with light N.W. [Northwest] wind.
  A Blue Jay flitting about in
the Garden with loud screaming was
literally the only bird of any kind
I noted there to-day.
  Worked practically all day on
the Bittern article adding to it a
quantity of fresh matter taken
from notes supplied by Charley Lamb [Charles R. Lamb]
& Francis Harper. James arrived
from Concord about 11 A.M. with a
big load of pines & some cedar posts.
Harry & May Cunningham dined
with us at 6. We all went to
Dramatic Club at Brattle Hall at 7.15
to see "Man & the Arms." It is essentially 
the same as the "Chocolate Soldier" but
without the music of that charming
operetta. Lizzy thought the acting
remarkably good but C. [Caroline Brewster] & I did not
like it. Home by 11 P.M.
