 [John Burroughs in Longman's Magazine]
 I shall not soon forget how my ears were beset that bright May morning, two days af- ter my arrival at Glasgow, when I walked from Ayr to Alloway, course of three miles in one of the most charming and fertile rural districts in Scotland. It was as warm as mid-June, and the country had the most Ieafy and luxuriant June aspect. Above a broad stretch of undulating meadow land on my right the larks were in full song. These knew; these welcomed. What a sound up there, as if the sunshine was vocal! A little farther along, in clover field, bagged my first corn crake. fsCrex, crex, crex. ;" came the harsh note out of the grass like the rasping sound of some large insect, and 1 knew the bird at once. But when came to beautiful grove or wood, jealously guarded by wall twelve feet high (some fine house concealed back there, saw by the entrance), what a throng of strange songs and calls be- set my ears The concert was ct it's height. The wood fairly rang and reverberated with bird voices How long, how viVacious, all most clamorous, they sounded to mel I paused in delightful bewildermant.
 Two or three species of birds, as n after wards found, were probably making all the music heard, and of these o1sF species was contributing at-least two-thirds of it. At AL loway tarried nearly week, putting up at a neat little inn
