Lake Umbagog, Maine,
[1894]
Oct. 4
  Morning and evening cloudy, the middle of the day clear,
warm, dead calm.
  I spent part of the forenoon taking photographs along
the path to, and on, Osgood's Point. The woods were very
still and alive with small birds chiefly Chickadees, Kinglets
and Juncos. A Pileated Woodpecker alighted near me &
then flew off much startled. While I was on the point
four Sheldrake passed within thirty yards, flying close
to the water.

  We dined at noon and after this camp, for a
space of three hours or more was a scene of mad confusion
for we dismantled it and packing all our things took
the steamer down the Lake at about 4 P.M. On the
way we saw two Loons and five Sheldrake besides two
Scoters which looked like Oedemia.

  I passed a restless night at Lakeside and whenever
awake heard a Barred Owl hooting on B. Point.
