Marshall, 1940 Melospiza melodia Napa - Oct 20 were also seen on the island and several Savannah sparrows were seen on bare ground (among sparse salicornia near the slough. In the late afternoon we rowed to an island (Bulld) on the East Bank of the R. 5 3/4 mi downstream from Napa. A pair of hites was seen on this id. - One perched in the top of a live oak (bar stub) and allowed an approach within 15 yds. The island was bordered by a band of Tules, then Salicornia, then Baccharis - Song sparrows abundant in all three. Alarm & others notes given often. A few in song. Flew from tules to baccharis etc - no restriction to type of cover. 717-720 taken here. I set traps in the Salicornia for Longhurst. Back at Longhurst's house, I took a Sayornis sayas 721 from the awning at the south-facing sleeping porch window (2nd floor). It fluttered against the window when I turned on the light. I reached back of the screen & caught it.
