Marshall, 1941 June 7 North Santiam River, 3400 ft., hum Co., Oregon good sized poplars (?) - Some 30' high - looks like a good place for downy woodpeckers & sapsuckers. Many Crossbills in the open timber along a little ridge separating this from the main meadows. Saw few birds in the meadow because raining & rather late in am. June 8 Back at the meadows - working for warblers with the owl. Got a mob of Melospizias (both species) in the willows + a pair of Truell flycatchers + a pewee; then Song Sparrows + 2 ♀ yellow warblers (which were collected). In the open timber, on the knoll between two meadows got a mob of juncoes red-br. mythaches, chestnut-backed chickades, hermit warblers. Saw swallows over the meadow - probably violet-green. Shot a juv. hairy woodpecker - & saw a nest of Lincoln Sparrows with young.
