Ther [Thermometer] Monday, Mar. 6, 1916 [March 6, 1916] Wea [weather]
10 [degrees] Dull
  Dark cloudy, cold in early morning
temperatures rising through day, snow
fall after dark.
  Birds in Garden: Crows cawing at
sunrise; 7 Robins & a [male] Flicker in Parkman
apple [tree]; 2 Peabody birds also in it & eating
its fruit (on seeds more likely); Blue Jay
just outside my study windows singing
entrancingly (at 11 A.M.) scarce louder
then a whisper, however. Many of his
low, sweet notes sounded like those of other
birds & he repeatedly gave a perfect
imitation of cawing of Crows seemingly
afar off & very interesting. In some
way, he reproduced faintly his own 
ordinary screaming calls. At noon a [male]
Hairy Woodpecker appeared in Jungle.
He had two rather widely separated
patches of pale, pinkish red on occiput 
thereby differing from the bird seen
here on Jan.19 [January 19] who had normal red 
marking.
  Spent entire day in museum
cataloguing Trinidad birds. Mary
Greenough lunched with us. Nuttall Club
this evening. Townsend talked about 2 hours
with slides on Audubon's Labrador.

Cambridge
Ther. [Thermometer] Tuesday, Mar. 7, 1916 [March 7, 1916] Wea.[Weather] Snow storm
Flood of birds.
  Dark cloudy with snow falling
through much of forenoon, succeeded by
fine rain. 5 or 6 inches more snow on ground.
  Garden literally flooded with birds
all day long. Most of them Robins & 
Cedar birds [Cedar Waxwings], attracted by fruit of our
Parkman apple. At least half of what
had outlasted the winter was eaten by
these greedy hordes. I counted 30 Robins
in the trees at one time but ordinarily these
were not more than ten or a dozen. Saw
28, which appeared to be another lot, flying
over high in air at 10:30 A.M. The
Cedar birds numbered 8 constantly.
They spent part of their time perched
conspicuously in the Seckle [Seckel] pear tree.
Most of them showed red sealing wax
on wings. The Robins sang a little
sotto voce. 2 Jays screaming long &
loud every now and then. Downy [Downy Woodpecker]
heard calling at noon and a
Peabody bird towards night. Hordes
of House Sparrows.
  Mrs. Kern of Brookline telephoned
to let me know that she saw 1 [male] and 6 [female]
Evening Grosbeaks in Brookline yesterday
Others saw them a day or two earlier
in [?] places, eating Euonumous berries [Euonymus berries].
  Spent day in museum cataloguing
Trinidad birds. May Cunningham
lunched with us.
