Early this morning I saw a Pigeon Hawk fly
over the ranch. It was stockier that (sic) a Sparrow Hawk,
somewhat broader wings, and decidedly darker in
general color effect. Also I saw a Lewis
Woodpecker fly from post to post along a pasture
fence. Tonight I again heard a Poor-will and
a Screech Owl.
6560 San Lucas Flycatcher (female sign) im. 10.8g. Shot in live oak
6561 Rock Wren (male sign) ad. 17.4g. Shot off of granite boulder.
6562 Spotted Towhee (male sign) ad. 38.6g. Shot from small oak.
6563 Calif. Jay (female sign) ad. 75.0g. Shot from small oak.

Besides the following 4 mammals saved, my 22
mouse and rat traps brot only a Peromyscus
maniculatus, (male sign), discarded, under a sage-bush.
6564 Ammospermophilus (female sign) 91.5g. 223x69x38x4. In rat-trap on open hill-top.
6565 Dipodomys (male sign) 50.0g. 267x151x40x13. In rat-trap on open hill-top.
6566 Dipodomys (female sign) 51.2g. 273x161x41.5x11.5. In rat-trap on open hill-top.
6567 Dipodomys (male sign) 63.2. 286x171x40x12. In rat-trap on open hill-top.
Before breakfast, 5:30-6:45, I went up the valley
looking for rabbits; none seen. Saw, and downed, a
Cooper Hawk, but failed to find it in the dense
brush. Later, 8-12, Lamb and I went up on
the mesa and across the anastre (?) ravine where
the live oaks are to get jays - which we did.
We only heard the Shrike, and barely glimpsed
a Black-tailed Gnatcatcher. Other birds about as
yesterday over the same route, save that I
