Oct. 9, 1950, Toulon Sink continued. Prairie Falcon - 1 followed along pole line ahead of car at 30 mph and it was not using its wings all the time, either. Would perch atop a pole to rest, and then fly on as we approached. Coot - 60-75 seen Dowitchers - 60 Avocets - 1,200 Caspian Tern - 1 Horned Lark Raven - 6 pairs Clarke Nutcrackers - 1 nearly adult size but almost immature perched on fence post in alkali area. Flew to greasewood where I got within two feet of it. Dan took several pictures of it as it was intent on feeding in salt grass, and seemed to have no fear of us, except to keep just out of reach when anno It pecked at burlap on old board like my pet black-billed magpie used to pec and probe at things. Never flew over 20' from us and I also approached with two feet of it while it fed on the ground. Appeared and acted weak, tho it flew easily when it wanted to.
