content: Alexander Wetmore used a portion of a "treasurer" book to record observations of birds in Wisconsin from January 1898 to August 1899. Notes were compiled when he was age 12. The folder contains the original copy in an unbound portion of the accounting book measuring close to 9 x13 inches, and two 4 x 6 inch notebooks, in which he hand copied the contents of the "treasurer" book. The first notebook contains a copy of entries January 2 - June 23,1898, and the second contains June 30 - July 2, 1899. The field notes are journal style entries, arranged by date. Locations are usually indicated in the first sentence, often specified by with a landowner's name. Details include common names of birds observed, their physical characteristics, observed activities, descriptions of birdsongs, types of trees in which seen, and sometimes measurements of nests and weather conditions.

Also includes observations of same type of bird in Amapá, Brazil on February 3, 1963. Pages are numbered but are not sequential. Pages are numbered in correlation with dates. Dated entries are journal style and describe birds songs (with phonetic descriptions), location of the bird in its environment, interactions, and changing behavior as displayed in physical appearance and movement. Sketches of birds support of the text. Bird's physical descriptions include sex, colors, size, and appearance. There are markings along the left hand margin of pages, with keys at the beginning of entries, indicating color and corresponding information (usually indicates which bird is being observed). Includes an index organized by type of behavior, and type of information included (whether description or comment) and page number.

This volume contains a list of initial identifications for specimens numbered 1 – 1858. Pasted throughout are typed notes documenting landmarks and geographic features (e.g., West Forest Kenia Station, Katheroni River) and altitudes. The geographic coverage spans what was then known as British East Africa, including frequent references to the West Kenya Forest Station and the "giant heath" zone. Also found in this volume is a typewritten page entitled ‘Documents on the plaque of Dr. E. A. Mearns on Plummer’s Island’ which cites documents from the Washington Biologists’ Field Club Archives (compiled by Dan H. Nicolson, 2000).
