Paris 40 46 2 mi. W. Hyampom, 1200 ft., Trinity Co., Calif. June 3, 1946 many of the meadows are very boggy, and have dense patches of sedge in them. After dinner Dr. Millert Ward Russell found an abundance of [illegible] screech-owls just north of camp, and collected 4. I set 20 traps along a small creek. June 4, 1946 Picked up trap line. Two adult Ceronyssus maniculatus discarded, and 1 small Microtus californicus (1769), which was trapped at the base of a large fallen log adjacent to Carlin Creek. Hunted until about 10 a.m. Caught a Thamnofhis ordinoides (1765) in a meadow bog. The abundance of Rana t. boylii along any watercourse here should be favorable for Thamnophis. Found a small Enneces skiltonianus (1766) under a dead log at the edge of a meadow. Shot 6 birds, discarding a Black-throated Gray Warbler as it was too badly shot up to preserve. Saw a Red-winged Blackbird in one of the flooded meadows, I heard several more. Saw two California Jays flyover as I stood in a patch of Douglas Fir. The fir forest higher up seems very poor in number and variety of birds. Set 50 traps in f.m.
