Journal May 28, Galician Range, 1500 ft., 5 1/2 mi. ENE Soledad, Monterey Co., Calif. Last night I set out 50 live traps these caught 3 Parognathus (2 ?'s + 1 ?) and 1? Peromyscus truei. We came home and put up our specimens. Then I set 25 Mus. Spec. traps for microtius. About noon Emma and I went up to the ranch house for milk. Along the road I shot 2 Scoloporus on Rocks and one on a fence post. We walked to the next farm and saw the swampy place where cattails had grown up, there were some microtius runs in the grass where it was very quiet. We went on and saw the house that Mrs. Hall's brother built out of Adobe. After lunch we looked at our traps and found no catches yet. About 3:30 P.M. I saw a young whip tail which S. Benson shot. It was in a rock pile near our house. Last night it was quite cold during the night. Today it has been good weather. May 29, The traps set for microtius the afternoon before were left out over night. So the morning they had a catch of: 2 ? Microtius, 1 ? shrew, 1 ? miniature Pocket Mouse and 1 ? Reithrodontomy. These traps were all set in runs in fairly tall grass, which appeared to be microtius runs. Fifty live traps set out over night caught: 10 Peromyscus maniculatus, 1 young Peromyscus
