R Dixon 1952 Feb 18, 17 mi S Washburn, 3400 ft, Armstrong Co., Texas Wild Turkey - I watched one fly along the canyon wall for about 100 yards and alight on rocky area. 3 other birds (also gobblers, at least with breast plumes) walked along through the junipers and joined the first. The first hopped up +7 feet to a ledge higher and worked up the slope, using a switch-back system. Two others in turn followed, the hop up to the ledge being made rather gracefully in view of weight of birds. The fourth had not followed at the time I left. Later in the afternoon I saw a group of +15 running across the mesquite-dotted terrace. Still later (+3:45) I saw 5 birds picking at something on the bare ground near juniper trees of same area. They were wary and moved ahead of me. Canyon Wren - seen along rocky stream course, singly and in couple call: [illegible] zurrut reet reet zigur izzer izer streeet also song (heard only once) Robin - abundant, remaining in cover of junipers along stream Cardinal - pair heard giving pit note and seen skulk- ing in junipers Gray-headed juncos - one seen - flocks of juncos along dry wash may have included Slate-color White-crowned Sparrow - common along dry wash near buildings
