R.J. Riebt 1957 4 Journal Dec. 29 2 mi. W Reyes Peak, 7000 ft., Pine Mtny, Ventura Co., Calif. possibly because it was still shaded even though the forest is more open than just over the crest on the south side. I heard a tapping and saw and collected a Williamson Sapsucker from low on the trunk of a large pine. Here I also identified more certainly the Pygmy Nuthatches. Junco's, whitebreasted Nuthatches & Mountain Chickadees were heard+seen again with Healed Woodpeckers but no more Mountain Chickadeets. We left the area & drove down the mountain at about 11:30 A.M. The topography/vegetation of this area were described in my journal of April 20, 1957. However at that time I did not record the presence of Sugar Pines in small numbers in the areas of thicker forest in draws mainly. Also the pine-fir forest extends down the south slope of the ridge as I have indicated above. Where the slope is very steep extending down from the flat ridge top to the campground areas to the west the forest does break off abruptly as I described previously (April 20), but to the east where the slope is more gradual (though still steep) the forest extends down to the south about 3/4 miles.
