Palmer 1936. Itinerary Aug. 1 E.S.E. San Benito (cont'd.) corrid. This afternoon, Johnson brought in a Guenkeron. This is the first I've seen from here altho we saw one between here's San Benito as we were coming in on the 28th of July. Aug. 2. This A.M. drove down with Johnson to San Benito. We hunted in the river bottom from 5:30 - 7 A.M. The area hunted is dry sand with scattered low bushes of Eriogonum fasciculatum (?), Baccharis dilularis, Canotus cuneatus and others with a few cottonwoods and willows. Birds were scarce and very "sky". Shot 1 Mockingbird in a Canotus. Her bird had a blue "mud-dauber" wasp in her nest when shot. I suspect that she may have been feeding young. Saw at least 3 other Mockingbirds here. Heard no sing- ing - only the Thrasher-like alarm note. Shot 1 Lutescent Warbler, one of two seen in a small cottonwood. Also saw her: Brown Towhee, 2; Western Grackache, 2; Wood Pewee (?), 2; Anna Hummingbird, 1; Sparrow Hawk, 1; Meadowlark, 3; Western Bluebird, 4 or 5. Heard 2 Shrikes. Saw Lewis Woodpecker 5x
