General Notes 1939 Lucerne, Clear Lake, Lake County, Calif. June 3 Started at 9:00 AM for Clear Lake via Carquinez Bridge, Napa, Calistoga and Lower Lake. Quite a wind blowing but sun is warm and no indication of storms. Napa Valley does not seem to have suffered from drought as much as other regions. NE facing slopes still greenest. North of Calistoga crossed several creeks well supplied with water. Area is forested and looks like ideal country for collecting in. Typical transition. Vultures thick along road especially near Clear Lake, Calif. Woodpeckers very common, a number seen dead in the road. Reached Lucerne at noon. This region is upper Sonoran. Hills are covered with grass and chaparral, tops of higher hills seem to have cedars or fir on them. At Lower Lake country has good supply of blue oak and digger pines. After lunch explored abandoned mercury mine shafts just east of road as it approaches the lake north of Lucerne. The shafts are damp but not very extensive. Caught one long-eared bat, several Myotis, (Lucifurgus carissima?) Aneides flavipunctatus, and A. lugubris. Explored country north of Lucerne and found a creek near Upper Lake which has numerous Eastern Bullfrog tadpoles and Bufo tadpoles. Set 50 traps out in a
