Palmer 1936 January June 13 contd. Lands SE summit San Benitos Mtn. (contd.) pines. Thus I shot a Shrenk it and an unknown which is, I think, a Bell Sparrow. Returned down the canyon and near its upper end, shot a Black-shinned Sparrow in the scrub-oak. In the evening, Johnson came in with a Poor-will which he shot in the road E of camp. June 14 Hoped to get up to the summit of San Benitos Mtn. today but it was cloudy all day + about 4:30 P.M. started to rain. Hunted birds 4:30 to 7:00 P.M. Hunted over the "plateau" SW of camp where I got yesterday morning. At first, the rain was rather hard + saw and heard very few birds. In a short time it eased up and the birds were very active. In the pines (Coulter + Diggs) at the edge of the brush, shot 2 Thrashers (both young) One old parent was nearby but I couldn't get a shot at it. In the brush shot 2 Shrenk Lito, 2 Bell Sparrows and 1 Plain Titmouse. Other birds were: Calif. Jay, Ash-Throated Flycatcher, Black-Throated Gray Warbler, Spotted Forster, Busk-Lit, Bewick Wren, Western Flycatcher. All these were rather common. Saw single birds off,
