Axis flammeus
31 Mary Peters-Schwader - one was seen at
the base of the fan on the west side
of Peters across from camp. It would
not allow an approach nearer than
70 yds. It stayed in the area even
though I chased it around for a shot.
Peters-Schwader Lakes - I shot a 87
as it flew over the shrike area
on the west side. It was unchallenged by the 87 shrike and did not see
me. Flew right to me.
1 June
2 June Peters-Schwader Lakes - one was
seen flying at a moderate level
over the east wall of Whistler
Creek valley around 1800.
4 June Peters-Schwader Lakes - 4 to 6 seen
on new walk [illegible] Schwader -
at least one definite pair seen. There
not observed in the wing-flapping
display but jied up the creek from
the rough leg till two (light &
shark) crows were seen soaring on
extended and set wings - planning
over the ridges in a moderate N
wind. Three new new crows seen in
mechanism.
8 June Peters-Schwader Lakes - two were seen
soaring over flats between lakes. No
indication that they were paired.
