Snow storm

  Snowing hard all day but most of the snow melting
as it struck the ground which was barely whitened by it.

Bluebirds eating barberries

  During the height of the snow-storm this forenoon
four male Bluebirds appeared in a barberry bush in
front of our house, remaining there a minute or two. I
saw them eat a number of barberries which they stripped
off the stems by reaching up for them while perched.
One bird alighted on the bulkhead of the house for an
instant.

Cedar Birds

  A flock of eight Cedar Birds passed low over our
dooryard about 11 A.M. flying north west.

Snow Buntings

  Gilbert saw a flock of 13 Snow Buntings this
forenoon. They flew close past our bungalow towards
the southwest coming from the direction of Lawrence's
field that stretches off to the north east of here.

Rabbits

  I started two Cotton-tail Rabbits from their forms in
the Berry Pasture this morning. They were lying there scarce 30 yards
apart.
