In the path near Goose Pond

January 2.

In the path near Goose Pond I see where the rabbits have eaten the bark of smooth sumachs and young locusts rising above the snow. 

H. D. Thoreau, Journal, January 2, 1855

See January 2, 1856 (“There are the tracks of many rabbits, both gray and white, which have run about the edges of these swamps since this snow came, amid the alders and shrub oaks, and one white one has crossed it. ”)
