have been remains of insects however.
-Siths & broods.
I scared bird off who was still
brooding at 4.57.
Bird were supplied and found to have
the journal feather broken there and
white pectoral tips just visible - the
essential obdminell down seems to be
worn off east or at least changed
in appearance - the single note-
occupies the centre of the future beat.
All eyes are open but triple of experiment.
-Bird opens up even when held in
hand or in the scales - but soon
tire and drop head flat and lie
shrewd as if dead.
B - made much fuss today
coming within 1ft of head - weak
open - chattering and giving
most pugilient style & quill
scratch also this jay-like screech.
I sat nearby but not close and
made no notice. B thus, did all
the attaining. Once 'stuff' I had
left the nest - the male moved
away giving occasional jay-like
screeches and female shifted in
and brooded. - did not feed - this at
5.20. - Bird brooded then was
fightened at 5.30 at which time.
Some attack nummed. I left at
5.30.
