Orr 1932 Fowler, Fresno Co., Calif. Dec. 15, 1932 Left Berkeley at 9:30 a.m. in company with J. M. Boyers for a two weeks collecting trip. The purpose of the trip is to secure brush rabbits from certain critical points in the foothills surrounding the south end of the San Joaquin Valley. Went to Reedley, Fresno Co. this p.m. and talked with Mr. Bellard the game warden for this area. He told me that brush rabbits occur up in the mountain east of here between Denlap and Pinherst and was of the opinion that Miramonte was the most centrally located place to stay. He told me that he always saw more brush rabbits in the spring than any other seasons of the year and the least number in winter. Foxes, Coyotes and other carnivores kept them rather scarce. Stayed at Fowler tonight. Dec. 16, 1932 Left Fowler this a.m. and went to Deer Cross- ing Camps, 1/2 mile east of Miramonte. Road led east from Fowler to Reedley & Orange Cove, a number of Squirrels, Lewis Woodpeckers, and one Sharp-shinned Hawk were seen in the low foothill country. One ground squirrel noted. After we reached an elevation of about 1500 feet there was snow on the ground. No Digger Pines along road to our Camps.
