Thompson Canyon Walker Basin
- Oct. 19, 1933. -
I saw two red breasted sapsuckers
"making love" this morning. They were going
up the trunk of a small digger pine, crying
"plaintively" and pecking gently at each
other. They kept it up for quite a while.
Incidentally, I saw about 8 of these birds
this morning.
We had a visit from a Mr. Stubble-
field this afternoon. He lives in Haite canyon
near Havilah. He was looking for Mr.
M.J. Williams. He tells us that there are
condors here, and that there is a bald eagle
here. He says also that there is a very large
"grizzly" bear here. He says it isn't the true
gizzly, but a bear known around here as
"silversip grizzly." He says its tracks have
been seen several times, and that it has
an eleven inch track. He says, of course,
that there are numerous brown bears
here-abouts.
