the Thoreau Log.
19 March 1854. Concord, Mass.

Thoreau writes in his journal:

  The meadow ice bears where shallow. William Rice 2d (?) saw a woodchuck last Sunday. Met his father in Walden Woods, who described a flock of crows he had just seen which followed him “eying down, eying down.”

  Saw in Mill Brook behind Shannon’s three or four shiners (the first), poised over the sand with a distinct longitudinal light-colored line midway along their sides and a darker line below it . . .

  Goodwin killed a pigeon yesterday.

  Flint’s Pond almost entirely open,—much more than Fair Haven.

(Journal, 6:172-173)
