k. Davis 1940. July 28. Grande Ronde Lake, 7100', Union Co., Oregon. Juiced from a nest containing three very young birds. They were a dark reddish orange color, and the only feather tract visible as they lay in the nest was the mid- dorsal, which had just broken through. The nest was on the ground, composed of fine grasses, at the base of a 3' high lodgepole sapling. In the p. m., about 1 p. m., heard several birds emitting harsh, short, rasping calls, and found that they were young juncos, situated in the grass. Found some young frogs in the shallow boggy pool at the s.e. end of the lake, where the water is quite warm. In all other localities about the lake shore, the frogs are all adults. Many of the trickles are drying up in the mea- dow about the lake, & the frogs follow the water right down to the lake. They are never away from it. Like Rana boylii, they their life cycle is entirely dependent on the presence of H2O. Even in soggy places which have only recently become devoid of standing or running water, they are absent. Weather today was very cold, warming up a little after sundown. Cloudy with intermittent sunshine. Moderate wind. July 29-30. 3 1/2 mi. e. and 6 mi. n. Yacolt, 500'; Clark Co., Wash. Sibley & I have joined forces with Ward Russell and John Chaltin. Our camp is at the base of Tum-Tum Mt., on the west side, in the Douglas firs, at the edge of a large burned and logged-out area to the south. Lots of undergrow- Vitus sp., Berberis aquifolium, Aralia, and very many fallen logs. Other trees seen include Western Red
