  • 2008: December 11 – <?php OTDList(); ?>
  • 1785: December 12, 1785 – Young crickets of all sizes in my kitchen-chimney.
  • 1781: December 12, 1781 – Larby now digs & double trenches a weedy spot in the great meadow.  The ground is black, & mellow, & fit for carrots, for which it is intended.
  • 1780: December 12, 1780 – Bees play out from their hives.  Spring-like.  The Barometr at S. Lambeth was this day at 30-6-10: a sure token that S. Lambeth is much lower than Selborne.
  • 1776: December 12, 1776 – Baromr 30.  Still, dark, & spitting, deep fog.  When the baromr gets very high, it is often attended with black spitting weather.
  • 1772: December 12, 1772 – Bats appear, & many phalaenae.
  • 1769: December 12, 1769 – Shell-less snails crawl forth.  Red-breast, hedge-sparrow, wren sing.  Worms come out on the turf by night.  Great rain.
  • 1768: December 12, 1768 – Moles work.  The ground was very white in the morning.  Ice bears.
