Upon returning from the trip, I find that the male at this time carries the near-female plumage. Probably in the dusk, one of these passed to us as a female. On the east face of Red Butte there is quite a growth of Juniper. The whole face of this butte was alive with the clickings of 100's of hummingbirds. It must be the evening center for them. Shufeldt's Junco Gray Jay Western Vesper Sparrow Clarke Nutcracker Western Robin Jorn Lake ---- 8-10-42 Clarke Nutcracker Lewis Woodpecker Solitary Sandpiper Rufous Hummingbird Western Robin Mallards Red-shafted Flicker Violet-green Swallow Sierra Creeper Gray Jay ---- Young? Dark sooty-gray body color. Head and wings a little more black. Tail a lighter gray than the body. They glided the same as the adult birds. While I was writing this, I was imitating the gray jay whistle and I got one adult to light on the table about 2" from me. I kept whistling and so did it. It pecked at my axe handle and then hopped onto a loose pie tin and the noise scared it away. 2 adults and 2 young seemed to be traveling together.
