the Thoreau Log.
13 November 1855. Concord, Mass.

Thoreau writes in his journal:

  In mid-forenoon (10.45), seventy or eighty geese, in three harrows successively smaller, flying southwest—pretty well west—over the house . . .

  P.M.—To Cardinal Shore. Going over Swamp Bridge Brook at 3 P.M., I saw in the pond by the roadside, a few rods before me, the sun shining bright, a mink swimming, the whole length of his back out . . .

(Journal, 8:22-23)
