RWS Store 1943 Myotis californicus Botanical Garden, Strawberry Canyon, Berkeley, Alameda Co., California. February 14, 1943 About 2:30 PM while in the Botanical Gardens, I was in the vicinity of a small tool shed facing the canyon & on the SW part of the gardens when I heard some squealing which I tried to some bats under a flap of tar paper covering the front corner of the peak of the roof. I collected two and a third one retired to a crack in the ridge pole where could not reach it. Both were 9's with no embryos. The wing outlines are shown on the next page; Wing areas measured by a planimeter at Richmond Shipyard #2, from Harry Mrs. Hinnell (Feb. 19, 1943) says she recalls no other winter record for this area. March 14, 1943 3:45 PM. One Myotis still in roost under tar paper but retired to crack in ridge pole before I could catch it, to band it. Took pictures of shade & roost.
