On river. — Flocks of tree sparrows by river, slightly warbling. Hear a song sparrow sing. See apparently white-throated sparrows hopping under covert of the button-bushes.
Found my boat yesterday full of willow leaves after the rain. See no tortoises now on the rocks and boards. It is too cold.
H. D. Thoreau, Journal, October 8, 1855
Hear a song sparrow sing. See October 8, 1856 ("A song sparrow utters a full strain.”)
