Cambridge, Mass
1902.
July 4
  Clear & rather warm with brisk N. W. wind
  During about an hour and a half (9.39 -11 A.M.) spent
in Mt Auburn to-day I noted the following birds:-
1. Robin: - 1 singing, 3 seen.
2. Bluebird: - male adult in oak near pond singing rather freely
3. Chickadee: - One whistling phoebe
4. Red-eyed Vireo: - at least 6 different males in full song
5. Yellow-throat: - Two males in full song
6. Cedar bird: - Two pairs seen flying together & the note heard in another place
7. Chipping Sparrow: - One heard singing, four seen.
8. Song sparrow: - male in full song on ridge just east of artificial pond.
9. English Sparrow: - Five or six seen.
10. Crow: - Three together in large oak - a young bird heard cawing.
11. Bronzed Grackle: - Two young birds feeding in path near Pond
12. King bird: - Two pairs, one perched on oak, the other hovering over pond
13. Wood Pewee: - Three singing; one of them was perched on a stone column
14. Downy Woodpecker: - One heard
15. Flicker: - One seen
16. Chimney Swift: - One party of five, another of three & a single bird seen.
17. Kingfisher: - One flying about the long artificial pond. I could
see no fish in it except large gold fish.
  The Phoebee's nest under the iron bridge is dismantled & evidently
has not been occupied this year. I saw no Chipmunks.
  Between our house and Mt. Auburn along Brattle St. I noted
three Robins (singing), two Redstarts (singing) a Red-eyed Vireo, a
Wood Pewee (singing in the big willows in Hubbard Park) and
a Flicker (shouting) in the Chester place.
