Loford, Rolf R. 1974 Journal 19 June Markwood Meadows, 6 mi. east of Shaver Lake, Fresno Co., Calif. ~ 6000 ft. Habitat as described for 17 June. No cloud cover in the morning; wind 5-10 mph., temp. about 45° at 0730. At around 0930 clouds started moving over toward the north. Cloud cover then about 70%; temp. 58°-55° F.; wind fairly steady at about 5 mph. By 1000 the cloud cover was very light (<1%). It clouded over again soon thereafter and by 1100 cloud cover was ~ 95%. For much of the remainder of the day the cloud cover was about 50%. They were moving fast so there was a constant shifting between sunny and shady. Temp. reached about 60°, wind light all day. I observed chickarees around the camp most of the day, making an excursion further east than I usually did. I also went up the hill on the cost for a couple hours in the early afternoon. At 1630 observations were discontinued and I went out with the Fish & Game people. Observations began again at 1850, ended at 1934. By that time the cloud cover was < 1%, wind 1-3 mph., temp. arounds 55° F.
