Tuesday.
Small black flies or millers over river, with long feelers, flying low in swarms now.
H. D. Thoreau, Journal, May 31, 1859
See June 6, 1855 (“There are now those large swarms of black-winged millers a half-inch long, with two long streamers ahead, fluttering three to six inches over the water”)
May 31. See A Book of the Seasons, by Henry Thoreau, May 31
