I drove to windmill where I hunted on April 28, 1951, arriving at 8:05. I walked down road and thru gate inside of which I had taken 652-653 pair yesterday.

Presently I located this mate; former gave see see wet vet vet , first 2 notes high pitched, thin and flew to N 20 ft. Mate followed. I turned attention to tsit notes still being given across road to N. One tchmooe moving N, climbing upward in shrubs, keeping up steady sequence of tsit notes, perhaps one every 3 seconds.
