Fine
Brilliantly clear with fresh, cool
N.W. [northwest] wind lulling to calm before
sunset. No frost last night.
  Very many Juncos at least 8 or 10
Robins, a White-throat [White-throated Sparrow] & a Song
Sparrow, flitting to & fro along
the lane & about the millet patches
in orchard. Chickadees & a Gold crest
in Cedar Park. 3 or 4 Fox Sparrows
(the first) & a Brown Creeper, in
the Run. One Partridge started 
in Birch Field. a Yellow rump [Yellow-rumped Warbler]
there & another in locust front

apparently local birds.
  Henry [Henry W. Henshaw] & Gilbert [Robert A. Gilbert] off all day, motoring
to Wellesley & Newton. I wrote
letters for two hours in forenoon &
again after dinner. Spent remainder

with "Timmy". We visited Birch Field
twice & followed the Run for its
entire length.

Ther [Thermometer] Monday, Nov. 1, 1915 [November1, 1915] Wea [Weather]
Fair
Partly cloudy, mostly sunny but densely
hazy. Very warm with fresh S.W. [southwest] wind
that brought light rain in early evening.
  The Farm & its outskirts fairly flooded
with small birds at 8 A.M. and more
or less through day. Most of them were
Robins & Juncos. Of the former I saw
at least 75 in one straggling flock passing
overheard, rather high, shortly after breakfast.
They alighted in Berry Pasture & afterwards
scattered about feeding on berries of various
kinds. Of Juncos there were 40 or more
in & about the uncut millet. With
them were at least 3 White-throats [White-throated Sparrow].
I saw 6 Goldfinches in Lane & heard
a Pine Linnet there. 15+ Purple Finches
in cedars. A single Titlark & Yellow rump [Yellow-rumped Warbler].
  Spent most of day with carpenters
(Hosmer & man) & masons (Harris & man).
They hung gates & began curbings
around well. Dexter came down to dine
& spend afternoon. We took short walk.
Henry [Henry W. Henshaw], returning from Cambridge & Boston,
joined us at 4 P.M.
