River two feet four inches above summer level (and at height) on account of rain of 10th and 11th and 12th.
The red maple on south edge of Trillium Wood is six feet three inches in circumference at three feet.
Yellow butterflies still.
Almost all holes in and about stumps have nutshells or nuts in them.
H. D. Thoreau, Journal, November 14, 1860

Yellow butterflies still. See November 1, 1860 ("The butterflies are out again, - probably some new broods. I see the common yellow and two Vanessa Antiopa, and yellow-winged grasshoppers with blackish edges")
