Banff, B.C. 1956 Journal 25 Mar. Shuttled Sage Hen Creek, Nevada Co., Calif. Partly shuttled them in P.M. without meaning. Jay & I worked on blind & nest all morning and until 3 P.M. Picked up traps, had nothing more. Left camp about 6:00, arrived at car about 7:45, got home at 1:15 A.M. on 26 Mar. 31 Mar. Henri S., Lodi, Orinda, Contra Costa Co., Calif. Set 20ms. up, 5 rat traps in brush under open live oak woods. Rained during night. Had 2 Peromyscus maniculatus, 1 P. trans. all &. Also had 2 Eratia escholtzi in one trap, and 1 Passerella iliaca. On 30 Mar. found a batch of feathers, neatly plucked, appeared to belong from varied thrush or teal, a few others under nest-like structure in Madrone, but could find no pellets or anything. Found a Zutums townesi under a board. Specimens 67-73. 2 April Fulton St., NW corner Edwards Field Found broken piece of egg shell and 1 egg with hole in it on ground under Cactus tree. Could find no trace of a destroyed nest or of a nest in the tree. Several small birds had been making aprons over a Calif. Jay when I arrived. Eggs are pure white, 27.0 x 20.3 mm. From comparison with the egg collection at MVZ, I judge them to be Mourning Dove. There is also resemblance to Flicker, but they are not as pointed as Flicker eggs.
