Lake Unbagog, Maine. 
Crow Roost. 
Corvus americanus . 
1896. I took my supper in a little cove nearly opposite the 
. 
Aug.14, Lakesi&e landing. Soon after reaching this spot I heard and 
■ 
: 
saw Crows flying from tree to tree just inside the edge of 
the woods but I did not suspect that there were more than 
three or four of them until suddenly with a deafening clamor 
upwards of a hundred rose and circled over me. After berating 
me for a while they realighted and became quiet again but a 
little later they all rose together and crossed the Lake to 
the opposite (southern) shore nor did they return that night. 
■ 
Evidently I had blundered on their roost and excited their 
' 
apprehensions to such a degree as to cause them to abandon it, 
at least temporarily.
