on April 28, the climbing Kaiserin Augusta Victoria blooming the same 
date. 
The brown thrasher arrived, in full song, March 11, and young of this 
species were out of the nest April 27. Young robins were out of the nest 
April 30th; but the first young birds that were noticed flying about were 
English Sparrows, practically fullgrown, on April 7, though your doves 
must have been out nearly as soon, as I saw a dove sitting on her nest 
on March 31. The next young seen at the feeding shelf, with their 
parents, were a family of tufted titmice on April 22.

Excepting Summer Tanager and Kentucky Warbler, which were first 
noted on Bird Haven (where they probably had been for several days, 
as they were plentiful and I had not been there for a week or more) all 
the above were first noted on “‘Larchmound”’; and as some of them, 
especially the Kingbird, rarely appear on the place their actual arrival 
was probably earlier than the date mentioned.
