when we got back to the station.  Mr. N. told us that a chicken
that they had killed had 36 locusts in its crop and that they
were all placed in it one like the other.  On the hillside near
the station I found Aristolochia Serpentaria in bloom.
Our train arrived on time and at six o'clock we were back
again in  Baltimore.

May 31, 1902. An afternoon trip with Mr. W. to Glenburnie.
We took the 1:30 P.M. train.  When we reach G. we went to
Marley Bridge.  We stopped on our way at the swamp to see
if Magnolias were in bloom, and remarked upon their scarcity.
What few we found were wide open.  It seems as if the 
cool weather had retarded them and now a day of hot weather
again had forced them wide open.  Two locusts were caught and
we observed the white <s>patch</s> membrane under the wing of the
male with which he makes his music, and the ovipositor
of the female.  It seems as if most of the locusts are
males.  When we neared M.B. we went to R's and got
one of the boats.  We then went up the branch for waterlilies
but none were found in bloom.  Kalmia and Viburnum
dentatum were in profusion and the Black Gum was in flower.
