7. which I have seen here. A few ♀ Western Tanagers were seen in the Pinyon on a slope near camp. They acted as if they were migrants although the species probably breeds here. Black-headed Grosbeaks were frequent both along the stream in the willows and also in the Pinyon, where I shot a ♀. I collected a male Lazuli Bunting, which was with a female from a Prunus (in bloom), probably P. demissa, at the edge of the canyon. Chipping Sparrows and Western Tanagers were in the same stand of large shrubs (small trees?). This evening I again went out to look for bats although the wind was blowing hard. I shot a Myotis sulfuratus near the groups of Cottonwoods and willows near camp. Although several other bats were seen, they were too far away to shoot at.
