Primitive Area Strawberry Canyon, Berkeley Alameda Co., Calif. Nov 27, Stopped at #1 at 8:15. Clear, crisp morning. Ground moist but shrubs dry. New growth of grass and weeds well under way. Two Calif. Jays heard on south hill. Flicker overhead. Song Sparrow in bushes along creek. There is about a five mile breeze which keeps the tops of the bushes and trees moving and consequently has some effect on the no. of birds to be seen. At 8:50 I frightened a flock of seven robins out of a tree at #2, Wren-tit seen in the top of a bush in spite of wind blowing. At 9:10 I arrived at the cast fence after collecting quite a number of plants. Since the last stop I saw only a song sparrow. It is strange where all of the many birds usually seen along this route have gone to. At 9:50 I am on the knoll of the north hill where the two cyress and two pine trees are. I saw a single Audubon Wabler on this side. Heard two Wren-tits. Saw two Robins; one Junco; 4 Goldfinches - (Sp?).
