Journal Salt 1947 Camnath Creek, 1450 ft., San Luis Obispo Co., Calif. Aug 31. There were no mammals in those traps I set in the manzanita grove. Apparently, although the Perognathus have had manzanita berries in their pouches, it takes more than just the bushes to pull them into an area. Skinsed [illegible] birds until 2:00 PM. The temperature I would estimate was about 85°F or 90° so Dehnel and I went to a Digger Pine grove north of camp to look for Xantusia. We looked in several situations under the fallen pine logs; in the flat regions at the mouth of canyon where the stands of pine were thickest and mixed with Blue Oak, on sandy hillsides where the logs were mixed with manzanita, and in pure stands of Digger Pine. No Xantusia. No herbs of any kind. Then drove to water tank and collected 5 Linnets. Took a swim with the whole gang later. Rebaited the trap for the Badger. Something at a hole in the squirrel carcass hand hanging over the traps. Wired a squirrel carcass to bushes for bait. Heard a poorwill singing after dinner. We went out to look, but couldn't find him.
