Creator Transcript
  • Chimney Lake, Aug [August] 3, 1948 This morning we found the geese + after a long drive we successfully impounded 26 geese. We feel that we lost 2 sometime during the drive. The weather remains stormy every afternoon + makes banding most difficult + unpleasant. Chimney Lake. Aug. [August] 4/1948. Took the 2 cars, boat + 1 canoe + set up a trap on Westwick Lake. A deluge came on as we began the first drive which netted us a brood of goldeneye totalling 26 yng [young]. The lake was literally covered with ducks of several species. Seen particularly were Shovellor 1 brood 1 white w [winged] scoter [male symbol] G-w [green-winged] teal 1 " 15 ad [adult] mallards Redhead 2 " Canvasback 2 " Ruddy 3 " Scaup [female symbol] + 6 dark 3 pale. The black-necked grebes are all out with their young now + they + the coots were most obvious. A few marsh wrens still have nestlings but all the young yellowheaded blackbirds seem to be on the wing.
