  The Field Sparrows are not the only birds it
seems that have become silent of late. Although
the country is simply flooded with Robins this season
I have not heard one sing since the 9th and
for several days before that date I heard them
only for a brief period in the early morning &
late evening.
  A Robin at Ball's Hill was busily at work
this morning apparently repairing an old (last year's)
and very dilapidated-looking nest in a small
white pine near Gilbert's cabin.
  Although the Phoebees and Bluebirds practically
ceased singing a week or more ago I still hear
them both in the early morning.
