Snake Entrance

July 6, 1932.
in spite of both of us, they went the
other way. A few minutes later
she returned to the road & continued
her hold-ups. She seemed unaware
that anything had happened. Finally
we had to leave the observation to
get lunch at Next Thumb.
She was not malicious toward anyone
but just taking everything she could
get ignoring people without any
fear. She had already become
dangerous, it seems to me, because
of this total lack of fear.
Jackson Lake
July 7, 1932
The lake where the swans nested last
year, about 6 miles northwest of Moran, was
visited this afternoon. The swans had
one cygnet only. Their heads were stained
quite reddish brown & they were almost
invisible in the water lilies. Charles
Fessler of Moran says that he thinks
2 of last year's cygnets went over to
Jackson Lake & may have been the
2 youngsters which wintered with
2 pairs of adults at the upper end of
Jackson Lake by some hot spring.
One other pair (Murie's pair) tried to fly
further south on the lake & perished.
