Dr Benedetti 1964 10 June Wyman Creek, White Mts, Inyo Co., Calif. collecting nest material, +3 scatterels Oregona. Nothing especially interesting here except the lack of birds. Found a couple of Vesper Sparrows with Brewers and Green-tailed Towhees in the high Sagebrush. We went from Schumann Grave to Wyman Creek and Guy decided to drive down to Deep Springs. Near the top birds were few silent, and hard to find. (D. nigrescens) Saw few warblers, mostly Audubon (T.B.T.C.) and only 2 or 3 pairs of Oregon Juncos. The mountain mahogany at 9000+ ft had almost no birds, Chipping Spar. the commonest species, and it was not until we got down to the willows near the first Ranch at 7200+ ft. that we were able to find many, birds. There was much water along its wilow, from a spring-creek dammed by beaver. The willows were still beginning to leaf, but were full of birds. [illegible] Warbling Vireo. MacCallum Warblers, Gray, Flycatchers, Song and Fox Sparrows being the commonest species. There was a little mixed Mt. Mahogany Juniper on the hillsides here where we saw sev. Bewdica nigrescens, Nutcrackers, and here we heard a Brush tail [illegible]. Along the creek I saw a ♂ Calliope very briefly. It seemed somewhat surpri- sing to find Robins in numbers all along the
