Concord (Farm)
Ther [Thermometer] Friday, June 25, 1915 Wea [Weather] Fine
Clear & warm with light westerly 
breeze.
  Robin chorus abating somewhat but
still strong especially in late P.M.
  A Cat bird in full rapturous song all
day long in lilacs near head of lane.
He mimiced [mimicked] several birds, among them
the Whipporwill rather closely but feeble.
Oriole, Tanager, Indigo bird & Red eyes [Red-eyed Vireo]
singing freely. Wood Pewee & Yellow thr.
Vireo [Yellow-throated Vireo] silent and perhaps gone. I do
not think the Wood Pewee had a mate
for I always saw him alone. The
House Wren in front of house still feeding
young in box & the [male] in full song. The
other two pairs I neither see nor hear now.
  Spent rest of day with Burbank
& George. We pruned apple trees & 
weeded flower beds in lane.
  Called on the Howes this evening.
Miss H. tells me two pairs of Starlings
have reared broods in hollow tree in
front of their house. Many fireflies
out as I walked back at 8.30.

Visit the Danas. Mixed.
  Mostly Sunny but partly cloudy with
heavy thunder shower in early morning and
equally heavy downpour without thunder in late

superb field glasses. We went to Cemetery &
discussed grading etc. of Melvin-Robbins lot.
Lots of birds singing among them Wood Pewee & 
Solitary Vireo. Left Village at 9 and motored

Eave Swallow, 2 Spotted Sandpipers. No
signs of moth devastation anywhere along way.

after dinner & took 2.20 train for Manchester.
Dick Dana met me at station with his new
Cadillac car. On reaching house I was introduced
to his daughter Mrs. Hutchinson, to his son
Harry, to Miss Mary Longfellow (whom I used 
to know & dance with in the late 60's) & to
his married sister Mrs. . Dick & I
rambled about his woods in late P.M
Saw a large muskrat in a brook. Not
many birds. Spent evening in parlor with
Longfellows & Dick. Delightful talk.
