  Black-throated Blue Warbler male seen by Purdie at Davis Hill.
  Canadian Warbler male seen by Purdie at Davis Hill.
  Although the birds just mentioned have not been noted 
by us before this season I think they must have come 
before today as the weather has been unfavorable of late for
migration.
Arrivals
  Purdie and I visited the supposed Hawk's nest this
afternoon about the same time that I was there yesterday.
We tramped back & forth through the woods but saw
nothing of the Hawks.
  As we were returning I left the path to show Purdie
the tilting boulder on the crest of the (?) in the Barrett woods.
Within ten feet of it I flushed a Partridge from her nest.
She rose about 15 feet from me and flew off swift & straight.
The nest was among oak scrub at the base of a small oak.
It contained 10 eggs which were partly covered with oak
leaves.
  We visited the artificial pond in the Berry Pasture
before going to the house. The roadway near the pond
was marked in many places with deep imprints of a 
deer's hoofs. The tracks were perfectly fresh & must have
been made this afternoon. I should say that the
animal was a small doe.
