Itinerary, etc.
Madera Co.
June 4 Bass Lake, Madera Co., California
29 Red-tailed Hawk
30 Red-breasted Nuthatch
31 Lawrence Goldfinch
There are many bullfrogs in this lake. I have
heard them in several coves. Have also heard
Nyla regilla. I picked up a dead adult
skink at the edge of the road in "Cozy Cove" this
morning, and saw one run down a
cranny under an Arbutus this
afternoon. This was in yellow pine, black oak
country (some sugar pine). I have also
seen Geophagus and Sceloporus here.
June 32
Russet-backed Thrush
June 5 San Joaquin Experimental Range, Madera Co., California
Arrived at the range at 9:30 am. See species note
under Cnemidophorus tesselatus and mourning dove.
June 8 Bass Lake, Madera Co., California
33 Violet-green Swallow - at "The Falls"
June 18 McMurt. Zool. Univ. Calif., Berkeley, Alameda Co., Caly.
To-day Sterburn Cook, Jr., came in and told me
that two or three weeks ago he was in Mohave
Desert, and while there he collected a large
desert gopher snake. "It was very large and
pale," he said. He brought it home and
some time since then it has escaped...He is
now living somewhere out in the edge of Berkeley,
so it seems likely that the snake will survive!
