Orr 1932 Waltham Creek, 4 1/2 mi. SE Priest Valley, 1850 feet, Fresno Co., Calif. Dec. 29, 1932 bushes. It stopped, partly concealed from me after running about 13 yards and I shot it. The canyon slope was rather open with some live oak, a few bayon bushes, some Symphorocarpus, Cereocarpos betuloides and Quercus dumosa. This area was still shaded at this hour. Several Digger Pines hereabouts. At 11:30 a.m. the day was warm so Boyers and I walked up the creek searching for chipmunks. I succeeded in shooting one, also another Brown Towhee. Boyers shot some Sitruwoses. Saw 5t Ground Squirrels. Bark of fallen Digger Pines indicated that California Acorn-storing wood- peckers habitually stored acorns in such places. Bond came in stating that he had not seen a rabbit all day during a walk that he took, but he succeeded in shooting a Brown and a Spotted Towhee.

The captive Kangaroo Rat that I had died last night, probably from cold, because the temperature was very low this a.m. Left for home at 1.15 p. m.
