Peirce Rocks 10:15 A.M. Dec. 23, 1901 [[marginalia]] number [[/marginalia]] [[marginalia]] food [[/marginalia]] This morning Art Rudy and I watched some Chicadees feeding. There were three of them picking the iron seeds for little grubs that had lived in the hard meat. [[marginalia]] feeding habits [[/marginalia]] They clung to the tips of the branches and pulled them off and then held them under their feet while eating them. A great number fell on the ground and one little fellow made several trips into the snow after them only a few feet away. [[marginalia]] notes [[/marginalia]] They kept up talkative notes all the while. When we first came one came down and looked at us as if to see what we wanted.
