1938 June 27 Ismalo Creek, 15 mi. W Bend, 6100 ft., Deschutes Co., Oregon Repeated my walk of yesterday but in the opposite direction. Came to a spot on a small creek where Chickarees were very common. Shot three and saw several others. Except for the greater size of the trees the site is not essentially different from many other places here. I flushed two Steller Jays which were not par- ticularly shy. An Arcti [illegible] Woodpecker took after one of them. I couldn't get a good shot at it but did get one of the Jays. Later in the day walked over to a large rockslide 1/4 mi. N. of camp and found it well populated with Pika's. Mosquitoes here are particularly bad, citronella having little effect on them. The frogs are fairly common in the meadows, Hyla comparatively young rare. Wolfram picked up two Bufo. I have seen none myself. I have rainbow trout in some of the side creeks which have quiet pools not so subject to thaw fluctuations. These fish when disturbed flip up much much as frogs do and then hide. June 28 Acting on Miller's report of having seen a Sala- mander in the next valley SW of here I went over and looked for them, but found nothing except Yellow- legs. Heard a bird note which Miller later identifies as a Gray Jay from my feeble imitation. Saw Kaneaga juncos, and Nuthatches but no birds I felt I should collect. Came home empty handed. Late in the afternoon when up to the Pika slide to try my luck. Was
