Ther [Thermometer] Sunday, Feb. 1, 1914 [February 1, 1914] Wea [Weather]
Fine
Brilliantly clear with boisterous
N.W. [northwest] wind, altogether like a day in
March cool but not frosty.
  4 or 5 Chickadees about suet. A
Jay screaming. Saw the Thrasher on his
perch in the vine at 5.05 P.M. but he
was not there 15 minutes before this.
  Met C. [Caroline Brewster] at St. John's [St. John's Memorial Chapel] at 10.20. We
had a rare sermon from Dr. Hodges,
perhaps the very best I have ever
heard him preach. C. stayed on 
for communion & I walked back
alone to write letters until dinner
time. We had with us at dinner
besides Alice Allyn, C's old
Roxbury friends Mrs. Rogers & Miss
Frost. They stayed until 4 when
I returned to the museum &
wrote more letters. Bulbs coming
on fast now but they are the poorest
lot I ever had especially crocuses.
C & E. [Elizabeth R. Simmons] read "Ayala's Angel" this eve.

In Garden 5 Chickadees, a Jay, a

  Spent day working on Pigeon Hawk

compiled from Umbagog journals but
largely rewritten. C. [Caroline Brewster] type-copying
all forenoon. Miss Balch dined

Judge Jenney on birds seen by
him last summer in Orkney &
Shetland Island - very good.
"Sun", the chow dog, has got into
a lot of burs & his splendid fur
is tangled up badly with them.
