violent north-west wind.
Despite these wintry conditions the
sun's rays beat down strongly
melting the snow fast in sheltered
places.
  In Garden: a Chickadee (heard),
White-throated Sparrow & Blue Jays
were the only birds I noted
save the ever-present House
Sparrow.

Ther [Thermometer] Tuesday, Mar. 21, 1916 [March  21, 1916] Wea [Weather]
38 [degrees] Fine
  Sunny for most part & comparatively
mild but not without snow
flurries especially in early afternoon
when for half an hour or more,
large, scattered snow flakes floated
earth ward [earthward] at frequent intervals.
  In Garden: 2 Chickadees [in a flock], 6 
Blue Jays [in a flock], at least one Peabody
bird, some 15 or 20 House Sparrows.
  Working in Museum all day,
in forenoon on bird skins,
in afternoon mostly on eggs
of which I rearranged the
entire series of Osprey's eggs.
They quite fill a wooden
tray in one of the large cans
and show great diversity, as
well as beauty, of coloring &
marking.
  Dick Dana called at 4.30 to
spend about an hour. We talked
of the Great War mostly.
