Marshall, 1941 Melospiza melodia Napa Co. Jan 11 patch a riparian growth separated by [illegible] mile or more of bare stream bed from the willows on the le east side of the highway! We searched very carefully, however, and saw none. A large flock of white-crowns seen, however, and I ceu- caught a good glimpse of a bird with a very prominant white superciliary stripe extending far back on the heard which was undoubtedly a white-throat. Saw several W. Bluebirds on the hillside. Tulucay Creek ends in a large pasture. The Napa river itself is bare of song-sparrow habitat for a mile downstream from town - [!] probably no song sparrows until the firt tules, of the salt slough.
