Ball's Hill, Concord, Mass. 
1S97. 
I paid a last visit to the Dove's nest and was relieved 
May 1. 
to find that she was all right and still sitting quietly. My 
uneasiness on her account was due chiefly to the fact that a 
pair of Cooper's Hawks appealed yesterday when I started both 
* 
birds together from one of the pines on Davis's Hill and la- 
ter saw the male fly over Ball's Hill and skim low over the 
meadows to the Bedford shore.

As I left Concord May 1 and did not return during the 
Dec. 29, 
. season I have no knowledge as to whether the Dove reared her 
young.
