Twining 1935 June 7, 1935 intermediate stage between Pinus murrayana and contorta. Several Cloake Nutcrackers flew across the lake while we were there and others were heard calling from the high cliffs. Rosy Finches were not seen. Grosbeaks were common about the lake seeming far out of their range at such a high altitude. A Robin's nest was found situated about 8 feet from the ground closely appressed to the trunk and resting on the lowest limbs of a large Pinus flexilis. We circled the lake looking for Coyote or Marmot and although this is an ideal location, neither were seen. We returned to camp in time to do a little skinning. I finished a gopher and a Chipmunk, and Aldrich, a gopher and one Peromyscus. While in camp we watched 7 Pacific Night Hanks circling in a group about 2 or 300 feet high, uttering the spee-ick call. A Sparrow Hawk in breeding plumage was seen today. The white forward edge and the dark grey trailing edge was evident. We met a pair of egg collectors Mr. Carnegie and Mr. Shallington yesterday who collected a set of two eggs from a nest in a high pine tree on the slopes across the canyon, and northeast of camp. June 8, 1935 Aldrich left early this morning and spent the morning hunting Marmots on the rocky ridge
