Salmon Creek, 8 mi. w Rogerson,
Twin Falls Co., Idaho, May 14,
I found several old Rock Wren
nests in the pot holes of the cliffs.
There were hundreds of places
where Neotoma appeared to be.
I set several (about 8) traps in
likely looking places amongst the
rocks. There appeared to be
evidence of porcupine and some
large carnivore, perhaps a skunk
or bobcat; the tracks of a bobcat
were clearly evident in the
soft dirt at one place.
On the way back, just after
sunset (8:30 M.T.) I saw and
collected what I take to be a
Pipistrellis while it was foraging
over the dam. There were also
several Myotis of some sort,
but I was not fortunate enough
to collect any. Will try it again
tomorrow night.
Aldrich reported having seen
four sage grouse east of camp.
They certainly are not plentiful.
Swining had poor luck with
the Marmots with his 16 gage, but
did bring back a Song Sparrow
and a Flycatcher from the canyon.
