There are great numbers of the common field lark; the black bird, thrush, martin, and wren, are also numerous. Turkeys, patridges, or pheasants, are not to be seen beyond the Maha village. The moschetoes have been exceedingly troublesome for several days past. They disappear in the evenings, which are cool, or with the slightest wind. Sunday gth. Got under way this morning, with fine weather. Discovered great numbers of buffaloe; on the N. W. Side, an extensive level meadow. Numbers began to sw...im across the river, as Hunt whose party was before us, [132] was passing along; they waited and killed as many as they wanted; a number which were started from an island, swam towards us, and we killed several also. Mr. Bradbury and I went out on the N. W. Side, where the buffaloe had been first seen, and walked several miles.
