September 10 & saw seen chasing a Kingfisher across boat can on Pure Point . 1901 February 21 } On each of these dates I came upon places in the 1903 Glen tracks where marks in the snow and granities of December 15- feathers shewed conclusively that a Postedge had been killed 1907 and devoured by some bird of prey.
