Monday [Nests of T.] Pallasi [Turdus pallasi]
June 12 [June 12, 1876] Cloudy and rather cool. Started off with
Stone after breakfast taking the Tyler road
Found nothing except a newly finished
nest of T. Swainsonii [Turdus swainsonii] until I reached
the Tyler farm. There I heard a Hel.
peregrina [Helminthophila peregrina] singing and shot him. A few
minutes after I heard another but
did not succeed in getting him. Keeping
along the edge of the farm I heard dozens
of Hel. ruficapilla [Helminthophila ruficapilla] singing. I never saw
them so abundant here before. My first
find was a nest of D. coronata [Dendroica coronata] with 
4 fresh eggs. The [female] was sitting and slid
off as I reached my hand up. The [male] was
singing about 100 yds. off. This nest was in
a spruce sapling some 7 ft. up & 5 from the
top of tree. I afterwards found another about 15 ft.
up, also with the [female] sitting on 4 eggs. This latter
was in second growth woods, the former in an
isolated tree in an old field. I next found a
nest of Zon. albicollis [Zonotrichia albicollis] with 4 fresh eggs. The [female] was
sitting and did not move until nearly trodden on.
The nest was sunk in the ground on a slope among
scattering firs and was almost entirely concealed by
last years ferns that arched over it. Among these
same firs I found a nest of Spizella socialis with
3 fresh eggs. In the open field was a [male] Pas. savanna [Passerculus savanna] 
singing. They are abundant on the hills above
Peasley's. Also found a Pooecetes gram. [Pooecetes gramineus] on the
Tyler road. Returning I left the path on the birch knol [knoll]
and happened to almost step on a nest of T. Pallasi [Turdus pallasi].
The [female] glided off under my feet. The nest was sunk
in the ground and canopied by the branches of three
little fir shrubs. The eggs were 4 and had been in. [incubated] [?]
5 days. Did not go out in P.M. Bailey found six
nest of T. Swainsoni [Turdus swainsoni] 1 with 3 - 4 with 1 egg & 1 empty.
[margin]Purdie [Henry A. Purdie] found a nest of Zon. albicollis [Zonotrichia albicollis] in a fallen fir top some 4 ft up. Mr. Gardiner got a nest of Ceryle alcyon near Brown's tavern. The hole went in about 3 ft. The eggs were 7 in number, all fresh, but he broke two getting them out. He also got a nest of Cotyle riparia with 5 fresh eggs.[/margin]
