Dark cloudy, calm & mild but
chilly with heavy rain at nightfall
& later. Snow & ice wasting rapidly.
  In Garden: A Purple Finch & two
Flickers eating fruit of Parkmanns apple,
two screaming Jays, a Downy [Downy Woodpecker], a Crow
& half a dozen House Sparrows.
  Spent day in Museum working on
Nighthawk story and adding three
pages to it. C. [Caroline Brewster] type-coping [type-copying] it
in forenoon. I had expected to
go in town after luncheon but
word came from our office that
Galloupe was ill in bed at home
so I gave it up.
  Nuttall Club meeting this evening.
Good attendance because of expected
talk on Game Law changes by Dr. Field.
He was unable to present, however,
so I filled the gap by reading the
Log Cock story from Umbagog Birds.
It seemed to interest everyone.

Dull
Dark cloudy, calm and mild.
Rain fell heavily through the
greater part of last night. It took
off practicall [practically] all the snow and
faded green grass has reappeared
over much of our lawn although
there are still considerable areas
of ice there.
  In Garden: A Chickadee & two
Golden-crested Kinglets flitting about
in lilacs at 9 A.M. Also saw a 
Flicker in Parkmann's apple & heard
Jays screaming. A few House Sparrows.
  Worked all day on introductory 
matter to Nighthawk story. It
proved difficult & I wrote only
a single page. Also revised
type copied pages written by C. [Caroline Brewster] yesterday.
  Mary Greenough arrived this
afternoon for a short visit. She
enjoys Victrola music so we had 
it from 8.30 to 10 P.M.
