Temescaltepec, 5500 ft, Mexico, Mex.
July 27, 1946
Pines are quite heavy along the crests of the canyon walls, but where water is bered off, but there are only isolated pine trees along the lower canyon walls. Oaks are very numerous, and there seems to be a heavy undercover of brambles & other shrubs. We stayed overnight at an innominate hotel, slept in a bed that must have been used by William Bullock, ate in a restaurant named "La Fondita," which I shall certainly name as a suspected source if I should in the future come down with amoebic dysentery, and more or less disrupted the normal flow of Temescaltepec life by merely wal-king around the Plaza!

Drove out of town about 7 1/2 of a mile and made camp in an abandoned house. We have a pretty good layout. Hunted from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., & from 1:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. Birds noted: White-eyed Vireo (heard commonly), Groove-billed Ani, Tree-can Vrogon, Brown Towhee, Hermit Wren, Blue Grosbeak, Chipping Sparrow, Turkey Vulture,
