slopes of (unknown1) Hill); Calif. Woodpecker; Nuttall
Woodpecker; Calif. Purple Finch (very common and in
full song here in the black oaks); Linnet (equally
common and in full song); Western Tanager (one
in full song, as I write); Cassins Vireo and
Western Warbling Vireo (equally in evidence);
Wood Pewee (common); Ash-Throated Flycatcher (
"buckaroo" song heard early in the morning from
slopes of (unknown1) Hill); Black-Throated Gray Warbler
(several singing males); Lutescent Warbler (one
sining male) Western Lark Sparrow (several); Western Chipping sparrow (common
and singing); Green-backed Goldfinch (singing birds
almost continually within hearing); Wren-tit
(heard song from bushy slopes of (unknown1) Hill);
Valley Quail (sentinel call of male in distance);
Plain Tit (one pair, in black oaks); Slender-billed
Nuthatch (very common); Bullock Oriole (one heard);
Morning Dove (several have flown past);
The "stream" right here is now dry - all the
water taken out for the ranches around Payne Creek
P.O. But down below here a few nods a
narrow canyon begins, cut down thru the lava
cap, and there, there are potholes with water,
the source, apparently, for the birds of these
woods. Along the ravine are luxurious
golden oaks, densely blooming (unknown2) ((unknown3)),
ash trees, etc. Up in the rocky walls are
bushes of (unknown4) and Rhus Trilobata. | S2 Page 4Collector: Grinnell - 1925
