Near Spring on Water works Island In Baraboo 4.14 P.M. April 23, 1902 This afternoon after school I was down on the water works island. Near the spring I found a freshly completed Bluejays nest. It was empty. [[marginalia]] description of nest [[/marginalia]] The foundation was of things which gave it a ragged appearance as they stuck out on all sides for a foot or more. The interior was grass, hair from rabbit & feathers and was lined with fine brown roots. It was about 5 feet up in the crotch where the first limbs started from the trunk. It was in an elm. The parents were absent. Indeed I saw no Bluejays on the trip.
