Little Lake, Calif. August 3, 1933. Hunted between the Little Lake and the river this morning early. Saw a young [illegible] duck. It was one of the flock of eight young previously noted in the water. Working for some Poplar trees near the log jam I noticed three fair Woodpeckers. I have also noted at other times that the woodpeckers keep in groups of three with usually two males. After breakfast went up the river to Conturo for my mail. On the way up I shot a Audubon Warble by mistake. Noted a pair of full grown [illegible] feeding in the big Fern Lake. Mr. Conturo said that he had observed recently the Scarlet Tanager in the meadow below his cabin and also a large black bird like a road runner with a crest. Hunted bats in the evening. Tried to shoot some of the large black bats but was not successful.
