June 5, Tuesday.
This morning Jim Suley and I got 9 or 10 nests of English Sparrows from a big tree by Maine's house.
Found 1 nest with 7 eggs in it. They were small. Got 27 all together and broke about 15.

I think that my Robins are building again over by Trumble's.

A Catbird's nest that I found by the Swimming - hole when just finished has 3 eggs in it. One has an umber spot on it.

This morning I looked in that Bluebird's nest by Patterson's. There were 5 eggs in it. The old one had been caught for the inside of the nest was torn up and there were 4 tail feathers in it. Looked in the Phoebe's nest by Dockham's. It had 4 eggs in it. One was spotted a little with black.
