Marshall, 1942 Heleodytes zonatus w slope Los Esesmiles April 1 Abundant in pine grove 1/2 way down w slope - in pines & in brush around & under them. Some taken as foraged goldfinch like in little brushes (head leaning way over) , 1 taken as gave hard cactus-wren-like notes from top twig of pine. Much noise - always 2 or more together. 6 taken. April 6 3 & 6 taken same place. Pairs would perch side-by-side & sit motionless on pine branches. I was amazed to see them fly to pine trunks & cling to bark like nuthatches & climb up the trunk & around the more upright limbs.
