Annual Account.
For a while this went fishing
over to Pear lake with
Lincoln Martin. The fishing
was quite good considering the
time of day and the length of
time spent fishing. We caught
8 fish ranging in size from
7 to 10 in in length. Their
stomachs showed that there was
an abundance of food in the
lake.
After dinner I fished in
Emerald Lake catching only
two fish, not so good luck
as the previous evening at
which time I caught 8 fish
the largest of which was 15"
The animal life here
at the present time is quite
abundant but still it does
not seem over crowded. The
thing that impresses me
most is the abundance of
Chipping sparrows about the
beginning the process of
nest building. We have also seen
White-crowned Sparrows, Townsend
Solitaires, Wood Pecker, James
Clark's Crowe, Audubon Warbler,
