Barometer tonight, 23.10 inches; clear and cold - an
inch of ice on water bucket this morning.
Ground Squirrels (beecheyi) are still out in numbers.
I suppose they may hibernate here, but no signs
of it yet. Chipmunks simply swarm on certain
bushy slopes - 6 in sight at once, scampering
over boulders, or over the ground from bush to bush.
They have all the notes of ordinary merriami - the
hollow "bock", etc. I have seen "sign" of Jack
Rabbit, but not one of the animals. This is evidently
not a rabbit year. Saw two Ruby-crowned
Kinglets in the willows today; one Tanager in
cascara; at least 4 Solitaires, whose interests
center around the cascara thickets, as do those
of the Bluebirds.
6493 Slender-billed Nuthatch (female symbol) ad. 16.3g. Shot from pine bole.
6494 Pine Siskin (female symbol) ad. 15.2g. Shot from up in pine.
Oct. 12
Trap-line played out; only 18 Peromyscus truei in
trap under manzanita - discarded.
6495 Olive-backed thrush (female symbol) im. 29.1g. In rat-trap under manzanita.
6496 Cañon Wren (female symbol) ad. 10.4g. Shot from boulder, one up a pile.
6497 San Lucas Flycatcher (male symbol) im. 8.9g. Shot in willow thicket, from
perch 5 feet up. The only individual tyrannid of any
sort whatsoever seen here this fall.
6498Slender-billed Nuthatch (male symbol) ad. 16.8g. Shot in pine.
6499Pigmy Nuthatch (female symbol) ad. 11.1g. Shot from pine.
6500Sierra (?) Junco (female symbol) im. 15.3g. Alone; shot on ground among salvia bushes;
