Coluris borealis 231 1875. Nov. 20 Rained hard last night and clear off the morning. Started off with Eustis at 8.30 and drove up to Cotton's where we put up the horn. Beat carefully all the sums behind his place but started nothing except two grouse, a bury of 4 or 5 quail and then rabbits. I made a double shot on the quail (starting them myself unexpectedly among some high brush) missed a shot each at a rabbit & grouse, and killed a rabbit. Eustis did not fire a shot. Afterwards beat one to and behind Chenery's without seeing anything. W.B. Quail 2, rabbit 1 Saw a finn Coluris borealis Sunday Nov. 21 Went into Boston this P.M. and called on Mr. Chas B Cory. He showed me a collection of some 100 skins made by him on the Nile in Egypt. He had also a fair collection of N.A. skins including a number of rare species. Among other things I noticed a young & Buephala Islandica showing in faint tracery, the white lumate spot on the head. Pine grosbeaks and redpolls are reported in small numbers Cardus migratorius I see every day in small numbers. Have noticed no large migrating flocks of them this fall.
