1938 June 28 Jumalo Creek, 15 mi. W Bend, 6100 ft., Deschutes Co., Oregon. driven off by mosquitoes, but heard no Pika. Come upon a patch of willows on the steep slopes growing out of a very wet marsh. How the ground stays so thoroughly boggy on these steep slopes is interesting. A little squeaking brought out a colony of Lincoln Sparrows. Shot one and spooked the rest but roused two White- Crown Sparrows. Taking them was pure murder. The gun shots attracted some Golden Crowned Kinglets and more squeaking kept them busy while some Townsend Warblers came up. Had a fine circus going on but finally retreated before the terrible onslaught of mosquitoes. On the way home got my Hairy Wood- Peckers. After supper went for a walk up to the meadows at the head of the branch to the creek on the other side of camp. In a series of shallow ponds surrounded by grass found a number of amplexit. egg masses, but saw no salamanders. Plenty of yellow legs. Went over the hill to another swamp W of the main meadow. I flushed a porcupine and shot it. Later saw another. Returned to camp June 29 Spent the day skinning animals caught yesterday. Late in afternoon went up towards the rockslide N of camp. Found several frogs in the marshes and discovered some Micratus Richard- sonti workings on a very small side brook flowing through a swampy meadow. Returned to camp began preparing gear for our departure tomorrow.
