Record for the Appearance of Birds and Blooms, 1862

Description

Farmers necessarily pay close attention to daily weather and seasonal patterns. Here, a farmer from North Almond, NY records a "register" of the first observed appearance of various migrating birds and of spring blooms. He is careful to give his location as 44.28° N. latitude, and 77.58° W. longitude, the farm situated at an altitude of 1,800 ft. above sea level.
