Ell Valley Creek Sxn, T 14N, R. 4E, Sec 23, Dr. Robert G. Brown.
A smaller bird chasing it - it seems odd that the smaller bird - whatever it was - would be chasing the owl this hard in the day as it was almost dark. I saw 4 or so Snow Geese in creek box. Dr. B. saw flock of young + adult Mt. Quinn in windows, N Meadow. He saw what he thought were Arrowsmith Burrows beyond our meadow.
Photo of meadow looking NE today. Saw Scares Genders at about 10:00 ft.

Looking for a locality of Johnson & Armerne 1937 Mus collecting locality on China Creek could not seem to find a road to locality. Were camped on 4-Mile creek about 200-300 ft. from its junction with larger China Creek. Set about 50 Mus Spec's up the sides + banks beside 4-Mile Creek for Newt Richus + Sorey Patwister at 7:30 pm today.
Aug 26 Ran the 50 yards & got only 3 Peramyscus maniculatus, 2 other yeas speuing. Dr. Benson set on higher price ground away from the stream & got 2 Peramyscus maniculatus, 7♂♀ P. Boylii, + 3♂♀ P. nevad. Will not save any of these mice I caught this wee. Broke camp & left at about 10:30. Country has very hilly with firs & oaks.. Heard chickabirds.
