Murray 1949 Journal Aug 19 French Camp, 3100 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif. cedar woods, not thick, with scattered brush of Rhododendron and tanoak. There were several grassy patches. Hit small pool of water Aug 26. Same location Caught 7 Peromyscus maniculatus (saved 2?), 1♂ Neotoma fuscipes, an adult. Saw no woodrat houses in the area, but there were other places for nests. Many traps were snapped, and some were upset and pulled away. Probably was work of woodrat. Took a long look down the road to the NE. The unforestd area on the map as Wiregrass Prairie was a solid growth of bushy chingrapin 4 or 5 feet tall, and very dry. At the base grew bracken fern, with a layer of dried leaves from both. Here found a road running down the hillside over a mile marked "Fullwood". Followed to an abandoned house and garage with a few fruit trees. Checked for bats and found none, there were many woodrat and mouse droppings in house and garage. Had a wooden tank about 8 ftsquare and 3 1/2 ft high, with a trickle of water running in and about 2 in. in the bottom. Several Sceloporus occidentalis were on boards etc. Caught 1. On my way
