Marshall, 1946 Melospiza melodia Sept Addition to Marin Co: some marshes re-established along San Pedro Road, East of San Rafael. Song Sparrows seen in them. Salicornia & Juncelia, some tules. Sonoma Marin Co Richardson Bay salt marsh This marsh by the old electric power house 1/2 mi East of Mill Valley Marsh is of salicornia type tidal with thickets of Juncelias along the sloughs. An extensive population of song sparrows here but the birds go into weed around the edge of the marsh & their population is doubtless continuous with sparse birds on moister North-facing slopes & willows in the vicinity But anyway these birds are not mere visitors to the marsh they are permanently established there & forage sing etc in the Salicornia & Juncelias. Is a game refuge & I tried to get birds with monstrops - got 2 with 38 traps set at bases of prominent juncelias. Could have gotten more by resetting around a old bridge which was HQ for & about 5 or 6 bds.
