Excerpt from How We Went Birds'-Nesting: Field, Wood and Meadow Rambles
Perhaps overhead in the verandah, or in a brace of your wood-shed or corn-barn or any out-building; but certainly under a bridge. There was not a bridge in all that region where we did not find one - and never but one.
I said we, but my companion, being timid about water, shirked that part of our undertaking. So it became with me a matter of determination never to miss a single bridge - and the country hereabouts abounds with them, so many are the mountain brooks; besides, I wanted to know from actual sight whether every bridge had its nest, and to see how nearly alike the nests were, all of which I accomplished. I also found that there was never but one bird to be seen - one lonely pewee in that dusky retreat above the plashing water, blooding patiently over the eggs, while the mate was abroad who knows where?
