Paul DeBenedictis 1961 July 1 Yuba Pass to Berkeley, Calif. Physoicles montana + mylitta enymedea, Glauopsyche, Enyoanis, Thorybes, + another shipper. Pussy paws proved to be quite good. 3 species of birds casually seen were Casia finches, robins, + hairy woodpeckers. Boy saw a warbler. The high downstream mever provides many habitats, and a deer + a few squirrels were seen as well as numerous Papilos # hameutis. Where the grass became dry, orange monkey flowers + mints were common, and a few Spyteria + ?Eupha- dlyss were seen. The N. fork of the Yuba River looks good for Thamnophis couchi, and a Mb. visible from the S.F. State summer camp looks good for pithas (picture taken). Past Auburn little of interest seen, except that in the vally west of Davis I saw a monkey-like animal sitting on a fence post - (looked like a wooly-monkey - ? Bassaris cus), [ground squirrel] got home about 9:30. (For the 1st 75 miles we averaged 10 mph. By Berkeley we were up to 28). July 4 Strawberry Canyon, Berkeley Alameda Co., Calif. went up about 2 in spite of windy weather. Birds hard to find. Saw Wilson warbler young (just left nest, with much gray plumage), red-tail hawk, Allen + Anna hummers feeding on monkey flowers + morn- ing glories, no males diving, and mostly ?s in evidence. High up in dense bushes a MacGillvary warbler. Also one flicker in the oak trees, and few assorted sparrows, hots of linnets, in all possible places.
