This morning I was down in the woods near 
the fair grounds. Two male cow Birds lit 
in a tree near me, one of them sang. The 
song was a glassy huddling dub cilo se. 
It was given with spread wings, feathers 
puffed out and tail raised and spread. 
The Balance was always nearly lost. These 
actions preceded the song But were kept 
up during it. The other one seemed ill 
at ease and hopped down a limd side ways 
and Back again.

This morning I was down in the woods near 
the fair grounds. A male flicker was 
flying around most of the time. The 
flight was Bounding. After he perched 
in a tree he gave the wick note fre¬ 
quently. While giving it the head was 
raised and he looked from side to side 
always alert. Then he would fly to 
another tree and repeat the same per¬ 
formance .

This I was down in the woods near the 
fair grounds. A male yellow-dellied wood¬ 
pecker lit in a tree near me for a while. 
It seemed rather timid and soon flew 
again. It lit in the upper Branches. 
The flight was bounding. The tip of the 
primaries were spread apart during the 
flight.
