1900. We left Flint's at 7.30 A.M. and drove to the upper
Sept.6. landing where we launched the canoes and started down stream.
.... It was an interesting day with fine cloud effects
especially at sunset. There were many birds, too, of the
smaller kinds. I saw or heard Brown Creepers, Chickadees,
Nashville, Yellow-rumped and Black-throated Green Warblers,
a Canada Flycatcher in full song (he sang at short regular
intervals as long as we were within hearing), Cedar birds,
Blue Jays, Flickers (2), a few Robins, several Song Sparrows,
etc.
