M. Raton 1942 Journal Cedar Grove, S Fork Kings R., Hoofe, Fresno & Calif. May 20, 1942 Black Phoebe Western Kingbird Turkey Vulture American Goldfinch California Woodpecker Blackheaded Grosbeak Grunt Squirrel Peggy Owl. Western Tanager Chipping Sparrow Chipmunk Fox Sparrow. May 21, 1942 Let our traps, 14 in number, East of camp, West of the road which leads to the Bridge. General vicinity is covered with Yellow Pine and Incense Cedar with Mangroita Bushes scattered about and a few Oak, rather small-leaved & stunted looking variety. While setting our traps (May 20) heard & saw some Woodpeckers of undetermined species, I saw some Swifts high above. Some sort of bats were seen flying overhead as we worked (Myotis species?). At about five thirty in the morning, we went back to our trap line and found an adult male Prompous Maniculates (1) in the first trap, which had been set under a Mangroita bush. The remaining traps were empty. Two had been sprung and their bait was gone.
