Stang. 1921. Kuopio Valley 188. the river this afternoon and evening but saw nothing but deer and drying salmon, and one quill, possibly a Glaucous Winged? Oulo gave us their usual chorus tonight, in most places the alder swamps make the birds of the road imperturbable. Paell train, minus a cook, left today, telling Um. along as general helper. Mon. Aug. 29. Another dull, dead day. Shot a foolish young Goshawk down the road, as he sat listening to a Red-Squirrel swearing at him from under a brush pile; those young hawks are very easy to approach. To the north of the cabin I shot a few birds, Nuttall's Sparrow, Lincoln Finch, Slate Colored Junco, and a Fox Sparrow, "(5 in one? Mr. Swarth thinks)?" This latter was one of a flock of about six in very thick brush. Worked on specimens all afternoon. Mr. Swarth shot a Horned Lark just at dusk?, it was nesting on a dead tree, with the usual bowing, wing opening, tail raising preliminaries 318. & imm.
