R.J. Ratt 1956 Journal Jarbridge area, Elko Co., Nevada June 5 Grosbeaks. I also heard Swainson and Hermit? Flycatchers Thrushes. On the way back across the open sage- brush we saw for fewer Meadowlarks and Horned Larks but we collected 2 of the former and one of the latter. A Turkey Vulture was soaring over the plain. On the way back we stopped in the Amelanchier thicket but didn't see the grouse. However each Dr. Miller and Ward each collected a Red-eyed Vowtel and I finally got a Lazuli Bunting. On the way down the steep, rocky canyon wall we stopped to take pictures and saw 2 Prairie Falcons flying overhead and crying. On the way back up along the Jarbridge River, we saw a Townsend Solitaire flying from rock to rock right in or along the river. We spent the afternoon skinning At about 6 PM we went into town and a local girl showed us a mini shaft where bats are sometimes seen. We explored it and found one Corynorhinus hanging on the ceiling in a torpid condition. The Yellow Warbler nest in the willow in camp was noted by Ward to contain two eggs. The weather all day was cool and partly cloudy. When we were collecting on Cow Creek it was quite cold and there were icicles above the stream or branches. It seemed to be relatively warmer in the evening and Poor Wills were heard across the river.
