1979 Ronald L. Mumme 25 Journal Hastings Reservation, Monterey County, CA (15 July) I then watched some at Black Oak, the collected buggies in the afternoon, seeing a Golden Eagle being harassed by Red-tailed Hawks (see sp. acct.). Dinner at the cabin with Nancy, then roosting at Road 3. 16 July Started the day by fooling around with the road groups, spending most of my time at Road 1, where I had a pretty good watch. Spent almost the entire afternoon sorting bugs (what a drag!) before having a nice dinner with Nancy at Hastings Cabin. After dinner, we went on a pleasant walk up Finch Creek from Road 3, seeing Pat's cabin for the first time, enjoying the maples & alders upstream, and checking out the damage that the fire caused. I was going to try to find and watch roosting at School Hill West, but I remembered that I hadn't watered Walt & Pam's garden (they are in Berkeley) and seen Winnie, so I did that instead. 17 July A fairly eventful, productive day. Had an excellent watch at Black Oak today, before reading most of Peter Starey's thesis. Dabbled a bit at Road 3 in the late afternoon, after things had cooled off, and had a leftovers dinner at the cabin with Nancy. Tried to watch roosting at School Hill West, my first visit up there. I saw no birds, but I did manage to find a NOAA radio telemetry weather device, which had floated down next to the School Hill West granary. Took notes on Chestnut-backed Chickadee & Western Bluebird.
