rives this P.M. about 2 miles.
There is no more game there than
here in fact; the only birds I
saw and heard were Brown Pelican
and white Pelican. I saw several
of the Brown. And eight of the
white in one flock. I heard
several Toucan a woodpecker
and both heard and saw
ducks, mudhens Great Blue
Heron, Egrets, and song spar
ows. Along the river I had
to wade, the bank being
silty mud up to my knees
in places. The 25 mouse
traps are still out in the
gully of arrow weed.
