Palmes 1935 May 25 contd. Itinerary Paradise Spring Paradise Spring (See map) which was reached only after wandering around on several side roads about 11 P.M. Mar.26 Paradise Spring, T.13N., R.I.E., San Bernardino Co. Calif. This place is at the base of rocky hills at the uppedge of a long slope. The springs seep out at several places and in these seepage areas are mats of grass and sedges, with a few scattered plants of Sisyrinchium bellum. There were also quite a number of large screw-bean tree, Prosopis pubescens around the springs. The soil here is very fine and powdery with a thick coating of alkali in some places. Birds seen: Mockingbirds, Linnets, White Throated Swifts, Say Phoebe. The Say Phoebe had a nest in a short water tunnel. The nest was made up largely of fine grass and owl? feathers and contained several downy young. The parent bird fluttered about while we looked at the nest and immediately returned when we left. Remains of dead Meadowlark and Flicker were found near the spring.
