of Tree Sparrows. They acted quite wild. They kept flying ahead through the brush and were hard to watch.

Went up to the Pine Grove but saw only a few Juncoes. They fed in under the pines or else in the shade in a field. They seemed almost to keep out of the sun.

This morning Art Rudy and I went over in the Half Mood Woods. A sharp shinned Hawk flew over alternately flying and then circling with set wings for a little.

Saw two or three Brown Creepers. They were very hard to locate. Generally when found they were close by. They called occasionally and this was the only guide to their whereabouts.

Also saw a Purple Finch
