Shing, 1921. Nine Mile Mt. 107. with patches of high weeds and heather. There are several creeks and ponds formed by the melting snow. Worked on specimens all afternoon. This evening another "Portly" called on us, but when Mr. Swarth hit him with several rocks and pieces of firewood he indignantly left, complaining in a querulous tone at our inhospitality. Doubtless he'll be back tonight with his whole family. (Tues.) Tues. July 26. Some fog, but on the whole a good day. There were flocks of Juncoes, Sierras, and Golden Crowned Kinglets in the trees around the cabin this morning. Climbed the Mt. this morning but found nothing in any of our traps. Went on a long hunt, at first to the Balsam thickets, and I sawed a Young Golden Crowned Sparrow, a young Fox Sparrow, several Savannah Sparrows and a couple of old Pipits. Saw one flock of apparently pale colored Plovers. Saw many adult Golden Crowns. Saw the Golden Eagle as usual, also one Sparrow Hawk. Worked back along the ridges and found a flock of Junco-thickets with young. At first they seemed wild but finally I got six of them, finding them very tame. They were feeding on seeds among the rocks
