Sept. 6. At 9 a. m. The bark below I enveloped in a deep fog heard a low, hollow, monosyllabic cry a sort ofhoot a towing sound like that made by blowing into a flask bottle inverted empty half worn out or so. It was a strange sound to hear with Bagshot & me. We peered out into the fog & found two birds, one adult the other a "gray" brown of each sex. One of them was making the cry.
