Davis, 1940, Sparks Lake, Deschutes Co., Oregon. July 15. to feed young, which squealed incessantly from 5.10 p.m. until 6.00 p.m., during which time nest was under observation. I saw several times in vicinity of nest gathering ants. Sit in lodgepole showed antagonism toward another three-toed woodpecker, species and set unknown. Home to camp. July 16. Broke camp a.m. To Elk Lake for mail. Up 1 mi. S.E., Broken Top dist., 7100', Deschutes Co., Oregon. Broke camp a.m. To Elk Lake for mail. P.M. drove to this locality, where we made camp in a clearing ringed by Tsuga mertensiana. Good-sized mountain stream about 35 yds. from camp, which is diverted below for irrigation purposes. Collected 1 Bufo boreas boreas along this stream, but saw no other amphibians. The stream is really too swift to support extensive amphibian life, although I thought that perhaps Ascaphus trui might be found. Ozel observed for several minutes as it hopped from rock to rock & fluttered about in the water. Oregon juncos and Cassin Violets which only other birds noted here. Much mammal sign, droppings in rocks by creek probably marmot. Many holes at bases of trees and stumps might mean shrews. Set traps, as did Sibby. Took several pictures of the surrounding country. We found whitebark pines near camp. Flowers noted: Phyllodoce breweri, a Ramunculus, Castilleia mi-miata, Erigeron, and the same dwarf lupinus noted at about this height on South Sisters Tower.
