Little Lake, Calif. July 25, 1935. Shot another Hairy Woodpecker this morning while tending my traps. He was feeding in a group of small poplar trees at the north end of Little Lake. When I approached him he flew into an oak on the north shoot where I shot him. The Hairy and Downy Woodpeckers are the most numerous of all the types here. I will notice between twenty and thirty of them every day feeding along the river and lake shore. After breakfast this morning over there I took the trail over the North Shoot and went directly down to the Kern Lake. Hunted along the rocky lake bank to the upper end of the lake. Here I waded the little creek flowing into the lake and a swamp, then through a dense thicket of Poplars and out on the sand bar. This bar is dotted here and there with willow thickets while on the west side is a grassy marsh and on the other side the River. It is an excellent collecting ground for fish to food and protection for the birds. Here I found the Western Tanagers
