General Comment
Staywhale Spring, July 26 (Conti)
Some Red-backed mice in the traps set along little trails & openings in the herbaceous green forest undergrowth. [illegible] Olive-backed Thrushes heard whistles of jays.
Several Peromyscus - in the traps set on the forest floor & about logs.
In the moonlit evening, I hunted Owls & Glaucomys. Horned Owls were calling up & down the valley; glaucomys were heard & seen in three different localities along the road leading to [illegible] camp. No otus fl. were found in the dense forest around camp; but 2 were found several miles away (see sp. accounts).
July 27
Went around trap-line (see above). Early in morning, hunted on W slope of valley, in sunlight. Birds in abundance, the small ones in large flocks: Black- [illegible] Chickadees, Golden-crowned Kinglets, & Townsend Warblers, & Red-breasted Nuthatch. Also saw several warblers of lemon yellowish color, dull - & with white eye-ring. May have been Vireos. They were in the few clumps of broadleaved plants. Heard several hairy woodpeckers, a flicker, many chickadees & red crossbills.
