Freestone 1944 February 13 Berkeley to 2 mi. N Occidental, Sonoma Co., Calif. Left Berkeley about 9 AM with Walt. Palequest and drove to Point Richmond where we took the ferry for San Raphael. Saw Harbor Seal & porpoise (probably Phocaena) near the Ferry Slip (Pt. Richmond). Along the road which skirts San Raphael Point we saw three dead Ducks (1 golden eye, 1 muddie & one other.) A flock of two or three hundred Canvasbacks were feeding in the cove - some by tipping up. We drove from San Raphael to Petaluma, Cotati, Sebastopol, Freestone, & Occidental which we went past about 11:30 AM and continued for about three miles where I stopped to hunt True mice (Pleurocomys). Weather clear & warm. Hunted True mice until 5:30 when we made camp at a deserted summer camp *q on the west side of the stream flowing north along the road from Occidental to Monte Rio. I set out 42 muscum Special traps - 36 around redwood stumps & logs on the west side of the stream and 6 on the east side in a small, grassy field just sof the camp. (Walnut Bait). Slept under the redwoods & Tan bark oaks in the camp. Heard no spotted owls or others. Moon 3/4 full.
