Little Lake Calif.
July 29,1933.
Caught another Peromyscus near
the river in front of camp. Caught
a Thomomys in a small clearing east
of camp. C. J. Hubble Jr. also killed
a Thomomys within a few yards of the
one trapped. It was a small & young
that had been collecting grass that had
been on top of the ground. Caught
another young Neotoma in the rocks
north of camp.
Made an early start for the sand-bar
in the Fern Lake. There were numerous
swallows flying about the south
craggy end of the lake I was able to
distinguish the Violetpen Swallow
the Rough-winged Swallow and another
long brownish swallow. Shot another
Spotted Sandpiper and noticed
another downy young.
This afternoon I shot a young
Merganser. It was one of a group of
four. I had noticed them for about a
week fishing along in the quiet water
between Little Lake and the River.
Killed two Rattle snakes today.
One early in the morning at the
north end of the Little Lake and the
other, a large one, at south east side
