1. Growth 1987 journal 195. 6 mi E. Grand Marais, elev. 650 ft., Luce Co, Michigan July 16 treetop. I prepared this specimen without (unt'd) tissues, as J66 512. Purple finches have been common at this locality, as well as evening grosbeaks. Pine siskins have been scarce, unlike western localities. I have several times seen kestrels attacking red-tailed hawks high in the sky. I saw a pair of croaking great-blue herons fly over today. Juvenile juncos, yellow-rumped warblers, and chipping sparrows are the common birds in the net. I have seen few, if any, adult junco's - and caught none. Robins are very common. Flicker and hairy woodpeckers are uncommon. Cedar waxwings common. B-c. chickadees + r.b. nuthatches are common. least flycatcher, olive- sided flycatcher, eastern w-revee are uncommon. July 17 The morning was warm and windy. A lone juvenile Type 4 bird came in to the decoys, but was not collected (recording only). I remained at the camp all morning, seeing no other red crosstills (lone white-wing fly-overs)
