132 Feb. 22, Sunday. This morning about 9 oclock Art Rudy and I went over to the Hemlock Bluffs. We chased up two Bluejays in Voll's and found them again in Cyon's Woods. The were hunting for acorns and were silent. At the Hemlocks we saw a number of Chicadees. They sang and chased each other around through the trees. They came very close and seemed to be affected joyously by the warm sun. We saw one Downy Woodpecker. In one Place under a rock was a little round Hole in the snow [[end page]] [[start page]] 133 in which a Partridge had roosted. It had been feeding on birch buds. It was rather a dangerous bed as a weasel had its den a feet up the rocks. We started for Weinke's Bluff. In the ravine below Weinke's Barn a large bird flew up with something heavy in its claws which hindered its flight. It lit on a log and we stalked towards it behind the shelter of a little hill. I identified it for a goshawk my first specimen. It reminded my of a Coopers Hawk but was not so brown in color and was a shade larger.
Transcription Notes:
"Cyon" more likely Lyon's.
