[line] Sunday. April 26 '68 [line]
Morning. Go up the river about five miles, with Peetka + Johnnie. and get the eggs out of the nest of the hawk he killed yesterday, there are two of them but they are both broken by freezing during the absence of the parent. Try my best to get in to a crows nest but the risk is too great. Lose my sunglass for which I am very sorry as I cannot replace it.
[line] Monday Ap. 27 [line]
Send Johnnie down the river to get some hawks eggs which an Indian has reported as being there. He returns with the male bird + three eggs. In the course of the day the wind changes from North to South east, and about 4 P.M. a flock of geese the first of the season come from the direction of the Nulato River and fly across to the other side of the Youkon.
