July 22, 1937 Up & tramped the woods a bit but didn't see many birds. We then went fishing and while fishing for bass saw a small hawk fly to an island. It was a pigeon hawk & she was feeding a young male both of which I collected. On the return trip we saw three male american Mergansers in Little Cedar lake and a bittern on the shore of Blue Sea lake while awaiting the boat. Fishing poor & return via Andersons motor at 7:00 PM. Went swimming twice after our return. [[The following list is in two columns on this page]] [[left column]] 1. Loon 8 2 Crow 4 3.
