Berkeley 1957 Journal 12. 16 Feb. 1957 U.C. Campus area, Berkeley, Alameda Co., Calif. From 0730 - 0900 looking at Zonotrichia and Melospiza. White-Crowns seem to be on territories, as do song sparrows, but most singing birds seem to be un-mated. This was a poor day to start investigating; it was foggy & wet, almost misting part of the time. Very dark, also. Singing was not in evidence as much as it has been during the week. 22 Feb. 1957 Texeloma Marin Co., Calif. Here with Jay Schnell helping to map a plot of broad-leaved sycophyll forest for his work with Pitelka. The area is on S. side of road. The forest is largely Ulelhlania with Tracius and Arbutus higher up. There are a few conifers. We measured a parallelogram 435.6 x 577 ft. to get a plot of 5 acres. Began to rain in P.M. about 3:15, + we finished about 4:15, still raining. Jay put out 2 rain gauges. Put some kerosene in the jar & prevent evaporation. Used quart jars with 5 inch funnels. Didn't get a chance all day to look at birds. Mapping + plotting took about 4 hours. 9 March '57 Berkeley, U.C. Campus, Alameda Co., Calif. Looking for activity of Zonotrichia around campus. See Zonophrys Falco sparverius, Hybrichka guttata, Melospiza melodia.
