April 21, 1902 
This morning Mother and I drove to Baraboo.  Vesper Sparrows were very thick. 
[[marginalia]] perches [[/marginalia]] They sat on posts and on the trees all along. They flew up in considerable numbers from the road in front of the house. 
[[marginalia]] number [[/marginalia]]  I probably saw from 150 to 250 in all.  
[[marginalia]] song [[/marginalia]]  They sang with great vigor.  When in trees the tail hung straight down.  Saw one flutter its wings with raised tail as described before.
