we arrived at 10 o'clock when the ribbons were rearing their wings in glee. Sometimes the rail muttles, soon for most of the noise is made from 7 A.M. to 10. Shot 2 olive squirrels in the culpe or round hole with pork. There were many running about the great trees chirping gunshots making a clinking noise like hews but much soft from the note of the gun man for specimens. Shot a toign the first I have seen here. (1) To-day was a red letter day for me, in the morning starting from camp below a hen jungle fowl + a francolin in the rice fields + one of the little white breast red or gallinule at the creek. All three species I have seen before but now not near enough to bag me. Hartman on along the trail through the woods. Shot 2 pig cork jungle fowl on the path. From the trail I saw a herd of Seminole hawks so large feeding on the beams of a top.
