1936.
5/18
2 mi. E Lakeview, 5200 ft., Lake Co., Oregon. May 19.
Left Berkeley May 18, at 10:30 in company
with Willis Pequegnat. Drove to
McCloud via Proville the first day and
set out 20 traps along Soda Springs
Creek, about 3 mi. SE McCloud that
evening. Saw many Myotis feeding
above the creek, but failed to take any.
Visited the traps this H.M. and had
only 5 Peromyscus maniculatus. Nothing
in traps set for Sorex palustris. Left
McCloud about 10 H.M. and drove to
this place, arriving here shortly after
5 P.M. Came via Burney Falls, Alturas
to Lakeview.
East of McCloud - 9-12 mi. we saw
several Eutamias which had been run
over by automobiles. Saved one, but the
head was smashed. At 15 mi. E McCloud
we saw several Callospermophilus. I
collected one. It had its burrow under
a stump and when I approached it
retreated. Stayed down 10 minutes.
Saw several Citellus douglasii near
Burney Falls, at Beiber we saw the
first Citellus oregonus and collected one
3 mi. S Adin. Most of those seen were
young or subadult. The one taken was
subadult. Many young of year out now.
