- May 6 - Got a ♀ Harris Woodpecker today that was laying eggs. I went up to the end of Windfall Harbor this morning. It took me 1/2 hours to row back. On the way up I shot a ♀ American Merganser. As I went up an old bald eagle flew out from a clump of trees, perched on a small tree and fluffed up her head feathers and began to preen herself. I thought it rather strange and on the way back investigate and found the nest back about 50 yards from the beach. I was about 60 ft. up in a large almost limbless spruce and was well concealed and sheltered. - May 7 - We went down to the nest that Mr. Littlejohn found a week ago, but failed to find the bird at home although I waited 20 minutes. I went down again this evening and flushed the ♀ which proved to be a golden crowned kinglet.
