Good towhee habitat obtains from Yreka to Medford. Oct. 17 Medford, Jackson Co., Oregon-Grants Pass, Josephine Co. Drove from Medford to Grants Pass and neither saw nor heard towhees, although there were extensive stands of Quercus- Canasthus-Arebstahphylos-Arbutus. 2 mi. W Grants Pass, turned for 1 1/2 hours in an extensive, unposted oak-chafarral area, neither seeing nor hearing brown towhees. Spotted towhees & wrens common, song sparrows occasional. This was per- fect brown towhee habitat, lots of clear- ings ringed by open brush, and a large cleared area with a widely spaced growth of some perennial, with a beautiful chafarral edge, but saw a P. fuscus. It was very cold, a light snow flurry at about 9:30 a.m., and overcast much of the time. Drove back to Gold Hill, turned off on Old Stage Road toward Jackson- vile, then off on Gall Creek Road. The weather was better, warmer and sunnier, and more birds in evidence. Spotted towhees,
