Lee Arnold 1937 Itinerary May 24, 1937 Reno, Washoe Co., Nevada holes. It would fly from the entrance of one hole to the entrance of another and poke its head in the entrance opening. We spent the night alongside of the Truckee river about 20 miles west of Reno but we did not set out any traps. May 25 Warm Spring, 4000ft., 9 mi. E Amedee, Lassen Co., Calif. Yesterday we left Reno, Nevada at 10:30 A.M. on highway # 395. We continued north on this road as far as Doyle. Here we turned to the right and continued via dirt road to the present location. The area between Doyle and our present location is characterized by low, scattered salt bushes which cover the floor of this broad uneven valley. One thing of interest to me was the presence of a Bald Eagle about 12 miles NE of Doyle. This bird was apparently after some sort of prey when first observed. It was flying about 15 feet from the ground. Three times it swooped down to the ground and thence back up as if after some sort of animal. Finally it perched on a low bush and watched our car. The bird was just getting its white feathers around the head region and the tail was gray in color. At about 1/2 mile south of Colneva I shot one imm. Citellus nedis. Dave Johnson shot three of the same species some 2 mile or so south of here (Colneva). We arrived at Warm Spring in the early afternoon. The area around the springs is typical brushy desert, but because of the presence of water, green trees and grass are found here. Along the east line of the farm at Warm Springs is a row of large Fremont Cottonwood trees which we are camping beneath these. Yesterday afternoon I saw a Red-tail Hawk carry a snake into the top of one of these
