P. PEARSON 1949 64 June 12 Banded and released about 75 of the Myotis yumanus. Pint up 5 and discarded 2 injured ones. While banding me found 3 day-roosting in the big house. When released most of the 75 flew airlessly, after landing on the side of the big house. Several crawled with confusion without hesitation under the trim of the clapboard big house -> After lunch drove to the Hot Creek Power Plant No. 2 which is 3 miles north of Carcel. People at the Carcel store had said there were bats in the gorge there. The garage is a high-roofed, girdled structure with corrugated iron roof. Bats were roosting between some boards and the corrugated iron. Caught one of them (a Myotis yumanus) and several others sticking their heads out but decided not to try to get them. Then drove to the 3 chalk tunnels at the Pit River Power Plant, 11 1/2 m NE of Burney. Nothing in the tunnels at 5:30 p.m. but at 9 p.m. cought 2 Myotis [illegible] and 1 Eptesicus. One other Myotis? escaped me. Didn't see any bats flying at dusk. June 13 Skinned bats + painted. Drove to Old Station at supper and talked with Brent Parrish, but he had no good ideas as to where the Cory are. Camped at the Cory - Bee place 5.4 miles S. of Old Station. Cories continued calling until
