(no. 2)
Salsbury, England
  Air full of Skylarks, seven and eight often up at once,
literally not a break in their singing for 2 hours. Four or
five hares feeding in a grassy hollow, huge fellows sitting 
erect like rabbits or squatting in forms. They started at 100
yards or further, and ran very like antelope, wholly unlike
rabbits. Tail showed white when sitting down but dark when
running. Drive back very varied and beautiful. Swallows flying
about chimney tops, one entering, another feeding young, sitting
on chimney. No chimney pots. Thatched roofs very numerous.
Many Lapwings, heard cry, a Plover-like call. Sand Martins over
river. Starlings in immense flocks.
