Rwoson 1945 Journal 61 Nov. 4, Napa & Pope Valleys, Napa County, California cabin which had been boarded up for the winter. Here in the yellow pines I saw ? Downy Woodpeckers, and both White-breasted and Pigmy Nuthatch. We went into Angwin & looked through several barns without success & drove over Howell Mountain to Pope Valley where we visited the Pope Valley school (Deserted) which houses a good- sized Colony of Tadarida & Antrozous which live between the old shingle roof & the corrugated iron roof which overlies it. We collected several Antrozous and proceeded up the valley to Actna Springs - a small summer resort. Here we were shown a number of places where bats hang up under porch roofs at night. Antrozous hang outs were identified by good-sized piles of Steropalmates legs & heads under them. The only bats we found were a group of Corynorhines in the attic of the ~~coolhouse~~ & dining room building which we entered by a window on a ventilator on the roof. There were also a few Tadarida under a piece of tin surrounding the drinery. For further notes see S.B. Benson's Notebook. Saw Calif., Nuttall, & Lewis Woodpeckers in Pope Valley.
