1900.
Sept. 9
  Clear and cool with N.W. wind.
  For the past week I have heard numerous Warblers
and a few Thrushes migrating at various hours of the
night but there has been no really great rush during
this period. On the Point there are nearly always
a few Warblers spending the day but their numbers
have diminished steadily ever since we came and on
no occasion have I found more than a few species
and a dozen or two individuals. Altogether the smaller 
birds have been a disappointment thus far this season.

  The fascination of watching the incoming birds at
Moose Point drew the Stones & we three again this
evening. As it was Sunday & "close time" I did not
take my gun. Only about 20 Ducks, all A. obscura,
came in. There were also a few Herons and a
Night hawk & we heard several Snipes. Earlier in the 
day the Stones saw five Bald Eagles, one an old bird soaring
in company on the marshes.
