My i-eoent notes on the Robins are as follows:- Sept, 30, 8 



or lOflev/ over the house to-night. Oct. I. Went to the roost. Saw 

 about 60 come in- most of them about 5.50 ( sunset, 5.36), One 

 flock of twelve (13) went rifjht by the roost up the valley towards 

 Rock Meadow, as if ignorant of the locality of the roost (northern 

 migrants?), Oct, 8. Betv/een 5 & 6 o'clock the roost at Beaver 

 Bi'ook seemed to be quite populous. In the afternoon had seen many 

 passing over Arlington Heights, apparently^ migrants). Oct . 31 . To- 

 ward sunset I went to the roost ( sunset , 4, 53 ) . At 4.50 four Robins 

 flew over, continuing their flight up towards Rock I.Ieadow (cf, Oct 

 1st), At 5 o'clock another passed over in tlie same direction. At 

 5,10 four, at 5.15 three. At this time there v/as one squealing in 

 the roost, but I did not make out whether hefollowed the rest later 

 on. The mode of flight, notes, & all the other circ-umstances were 

 identical with what one sees during the sumi'rier roost-flights. The 

 trees in the old roost are now mostly bare & it looks as if the 

 birds had chosen a nevf dormitory further up the valley
