in Douglas Fir - Pine freat n west slope
of canyon. Walked down to camp from this point.
Harold Reynolds took a ? Ruffed Grouse

mate of my bird (No 112). See his notes for data
on crop contents.
Walked downstream after 7:00 PM and collected
? Andean Warbler (No 116.) apparently about
to be fed by ? which was repeating call note

occasionally.
July 6. 2 mi E Shriver, 6500 ft, Carbon Co, Montana
Clear cool morning. left camp at 5:30 working
in area 100 yards upstream for 15 minutes. Went
downstream into grove of [illegible] where flock of
Pine Siskins was active, birds calling + shifting
perch frequently. Heard Warbling Vireo singing
in aspen and squealed it up and collected
the bird, a ? (no 18). Proceeded across
ranchyard to another grove of aspen in which
I called up a pair of Lazuli Buntings, taking
the ? (no 12). Noted a warbler in aspens also,
only a fleeting glimpse.
Walked down across meadows to shrubby
willows 10-12 ft high along streams.
