June 14= May 31 A nest with young in ash Stubs one water in pond opposite Pulpit Rock. The hole was dark & discolored about the edges & I am very sure that it was an old one. The ♂ parent came at short, regular intervals (about once each minute) bearing always something that looked like a grub in the end of its bill & which was difficult to separate from the mandibles perfectly. When the bird entered the hole the young began making a noise almost precisely like that of young 4 larks keeping them up for a little while after their parent had left them. No trace nothing of the ♀ parent. These are the first young Birds of any kind that we have seen here this season. June L.M.
