Little Lake, Calif.
July 25, 1933.
Found a young & Peromyscus and
a young & Neotoma Cinerea Cinerea in
my traps this morning. The
Peromyscus was caught on the camp
table while the Neotoma was caught
in the rocky back of camp. The
Neotoma had a large larva of the
bot fly over its right hip and
number of small but like insects
sticking to it about the nose and
mouth Started early this morning
to hunt along the edge of the Kern
Lake and Kern River, to Contiguas store.
At the upper end of the lake I shot
a Piceus Wings and saw a pair of
Jungers but was unable to get the
photo. On one of the large pines
I a Sclender - killed Catharacta. It was
feeding in the black about 30 ft.
off the ground. While preparing
the skin to carry I noticed a
Sciurus Douglasii Abolinatus
growing in the willows and small
yellow pine. When I shot him he
was about 2 ft. off the ground and
fell into the mush. Saw a number of
his workings on the yellow pine cones.
