78 [degrees] Perfect
Cloudless, windless & of summer-
like warmth the day was simply
perfect as befitted one which
brought the very highest proliferation
of blossoming apple orchards & fields
carpeted with golden dandelions.
When I awoke at daybreak a Crested
Flycatcher was calling in the orchard.
At breakfast time & later a rare-
voiced Wood Thrush was singing in
the run. Besides these there were
our usual Oriole, Phoebes. Bobolink,
Purple Finch, etc. - altogether a
glad choir of delightful bird voices.
  Spent most of forenoon in arm chair
in dooryard supervising work on
flower beds etc. Left Farm in Ford car
