Journal 122. J. Groth 1986 July 26 I went into Florence this morning to get supplies and call home to Albany, CA. While in Florence, I heard a crossbill fly low over the safeway store parking lot giving flight song (Type 3 or 4?). I spent the remainder of the day back at the camp stuffing bird skins all day -- did not set up the net. Heard mostly Type 4 birds, occasional Type 3's. My estimate for the area as a whole: 75% Type 4, 25% type 3. flocks of juveniles were common. I never observed a mixed flock of Type 3's and Type 4's. The weather was mostly very good, with some fog rising into clouds - but generally fair, warm -- 70's. Lot's of rickins, also a house finch came into (around) camp. A flock of evening grosbeaks flew over. A turkey vulture was seen. July 27 I spent the morning prepping skins. The weather was about the same (breezy as usual). Type 4's + Type 3's around. At about 11:30 am I finished the skins and headed N on 101 just to explore drove as far as Tillamook where I took 6 to the E. Sitka spuce
