Ball's Hill, Concord, Mass. 
1897. On both these evenings a little before sunset I saw two 
Apr. 8 &3 . or three Red-wings feeding on stubble fields near the river 
bank and singing at short, regular intervals on the ground * 
merely pausing and erecting their heads as they gave the 
tweed 1 1 1 ee and then rambling on in quest of food. They were 
not together but at different places.
