Journal 28. 13 June Queen Canyon, 700ft., Mineral Co., Nevada the willows and Stella Jay in Pinon not far from the stream. Put up the Jay & the mule. On the trip back to the ranch shot a Sage Sparrow. Ned got a Solitary Vireo, blown up badly, not in breeding condition not saved. He also got an Orange Crowned Warbler, Horned Lark, and B.G. Bluebird. He stayed mostly in the willows along the stream. This is a beautiful area, one which was interesting to watch. My bird list for the area, including the ranch, was as follows: Western Kingbird, Yellow Warbler, Robin, Baltimore Oriole, Violet-green Swallow, Horned Lark, Spotted Towhee, Brewer's Sparrow, Hermit Thrush (heard), Teschic Warbler Walling Vireo, Blue-headed (= Cassin = Solitary) Vireo, Bushtit, Western Wood Pewee, Western Meadowlark, Fox Sparrow, Stellar Jay, Rock Wren, Gray (?) Flycatcher, Black-throated Grey Warbler, Cinclirid, Killdeer Sage Sparrow, Chipping Sparrow, & Red Crossbill & Red Squirrel. Layli Bunting also. I shot a lizard. There is a good dirt road all the way from Pt. 6 to the Queen Mine, we found out later. The mine is active. I came down from the mountain in a wrong canyon and had to cross about 6 bridges to get back to the base of the canyon. Boundary Peak is very beautiful from both below in the valley & above on the hill. Saw several deer.
