In the evening, about 7:00 P.M., I shot a
night-hawk.
Two reproductive tracts were taken on the

I secured one gopher from my three sets.
I put up the gopher and the night-hawk.
Later in the day, Johnson and I set
two traps at the entrance to a badgerden.
Night-hawks flew up the canyon at
6:30 P.M. There were approximately ten in
the flock. They flew back down the canyon
at 7:30 P.M.

My coyote traps were visited without result.
I took them to camp.
I shot a Cassin finch from a piƱon pine,
and put up the skin in the afternoon. We
prepared to leave camp.
