W. B. Davis 1936. Belleuve, Blaine Co., Idaho, Jan. 3. This noon I left Rupert and drove to Bellevue via Paul, Hazeltow, Eden and Shoshone. There was considerable snow on the highway most of the distance), but the day was clear. Here at Bellevue the snow is about 20" deep save where it has drifted. When I arrived I learned that Jwining had left for Baker Creek, 12 mi. N of Petchum with Mr. A. W. Linderman, a trapper who has trapped in this general area since 1923. I learned that Jwining had taken Bohemian Warwings, Western Evening Grosbeaks, White-tailed Jack Rabbit and Great Horned Owl. Had also purchased a badger skin from Gene Glahn. About 12 mi. W of Rupert I saw two Horned Larks, one of which I collected. They were fairly common between Paul and Hazeltow. English Sparrows were common about each ranch house. About 5 miles south of Shoshone I saw a flock of about 50 Ravens near the highway. They were feeding in part on the jack rabbits that had been killed by passing automobiles.
