the days of the Yosemite Survey! Probably part of
the "Tolmie" warblers I censused on June 17, by voice,
were really Calaveras, as I now know the
precincts of several over the same route (in
addition to some Tolmies). The Calaveras Warbler
occurs regular up the dry, rather open woods
(Transition) of the Martin Creek ridge (along lower part of
Viola Traill towards Brokeoff, up to about the 6000 foot contour;
beyond that only scatteringly; and the one I shot, well within
the Canadian, was the highest noted. This species is almost
sure to be noted in the vicinity of the black oaks
which occur scatteringly up that sunny ridge, among
pines and white firs, or mid chaparral, up to 6000 ft. -
thus pretty consistently transitional.

A male California Purple Finch has gotten the
habit of visiting camp daily. Several times some
days it comes to the ground about our fire-place
and eating table, hops around, and picks up particles,
the larger of which seem to be flakes of "H O". Today
a shyer [female symbol] came, alone. While the [male symbol], if one is
quiet, comes within 6 feet of one's shoes, the [female symbol] did
not come closer than 15 feet. \ Then, to our
surprise, a [male symbol] Cassin Purple Finch came, separately,
today. It, too, was shy, this being, perhaps, its
first visit. But it gave wonderful opportunity of
seeing all of its characters - red cap, very pale
pink breast, ashy line over eye, streaked beak, and generally ^^{grayish tone}.
