Feb. 14 2mi. N Occidental, Sonoma Co., Calif to Berkeley, Alta. Co. ran through an old, caved-in tunnel which looked like a good place for bats but as we didn't have flashlights with us at the moment and the wood shoring looked rather rough we did not enter. Along the side of the road bed was an old coat covered with Polypodium californicum, Selaginella (wallacei?) which I collected, an hepatic which was fruiting heavily, and a fair number of plants of Pellaea andromedifolia and some Gymnograme. Other Pteridophytes in neighborhood of camp included Polystichum minutum, Woodwardia, Dryopteris Argutina, 1/2 Pteris. Hunted Phraconys until about 10:30AM when we broke camp and started back to Berkeley via the San Rafael Ferry arriving about 2:30 PM in Berkeley. Saw 2 Herring Gulls from the ferry. Addendum. Saw Yellow-shafted Flicker near Sebastopol on the way up (the 13th) saw both the yellow wing linings and red wasp as he lit on a fruit tree but didn't stop.
