Itinerary
July 8 Brooks Mdw, Hood River Co, Ore.
By their absence, No owls were
seen or heard hooting, but one
owl pellet was found in the Mdw.
In the evening a few bats were
again seen flying quite early, and
one was shot, but it dropped in a
tree and I was unable to recover
it. Sciurus douglasii, Entomias anomus,
Entomias townsendii, and Citellus lateralis
are very abundant about here.
Citellus lateralis stays more in
the Mdw., but the others are found
for the most part in the timber
or about the edge of the Mdw.
Sciurus douglasii stays higher
in the trees than the Entomias.
Several young of both sp. of Entomias
and of Citellus have been seen
or collected. This morning while
accompanying Johnson to look
at my spring trap sets I shot
a Sephus washingtonii along a road
through heavy timber. One more &
Entomias townsendii was caught in
a rat trap with farmme bait set
among fallen logs in heavy timber.
