Oct. 17, 1933. 228 Peromyscus m. sonoriensis ♂ wt: 19 152-75-20-19 229 Reithrodonomys ♀ wt: 15 150-81-17-15 √ 230 Citellus beecheyi ♂ wt: 569 420-171-55-30 √ 231 Dipodomys agilis ♀ wt: 78 310-189-46-19 Right after I wrote the last note I went out and shot a cedar waxwing from a willow near the tent. And I also shot a golden crowned sparrow which I had noticed in the willows. I first noticed it when I saw an unfamiliar movement. Right after lunch Ray and I walked up a canyon in which he had set some traps for chipmunks. He caught nothing. I shot a female ruby-crowned knight, a slender- billed nuthatch and a ground squirrel. I noticed many titmouses and nuthatches together in the same set of blue oaks. This evening I shot a female Williamson sapsucker out of a blue oak about 100 yds. from Basin creek. The sun had already gone down. The makes all three of the sapsuckers of the western U.S. that I have shot here. I'll try to get the male tomorrow. I also shot a sparrow- hawk out of a blue oak tonight, after the sun had gone down.
