Pandion Bar, Spiz. sociola, Mel. jaohstris 87 MASS. (Middlesex Co.) April 10 - 1875. Middlesex Co., Mass. April 8. all four barrels at a Buntis branch which cann also written Long Range). Saw then Muscus Amea, about fifty Acres of Osura, a dozen Buckphala Am and large flocks of teal (Mr. unrecognised) After eating branch it commenced snowing and we started back against a fine gale of sleet and Snows and after a hard two hours Saw reached town again. On the way up saw several large flocks of black ducks sitting on an elevated portion of the meadow. As we approached they would stand nearby erect with necks stretched up: among them was a very light colored bird of equal size which I think was a Q mallard. Shot the Pll. in the Bunt horn with gun and others and took the last train homed. Saw a flock off B.Can. Apr 10 Clear and a fine day, Wind W. Sun. 60° at noon? Off after breakfast with Messrs. Reid, Barston and Strithingham. Started two trips in the brickyard meadows one of which I shot, I think they are the same birds that I saw on the 2nd inst. Beat all the Belmont meadows but found nothing. Arrived won Pandion Bar. 1; Mel. jaohstris Amul &5; Spizella sociola 1 & Virgin. Reached the home by moon. The snow is almost entirely gone only a few wasted drifts remaining in sheltered places. The frost is said to be entirely out on the mainland but the meadows yet remain hard in many places, Rendl Boyle.
