18 Picus stricklandi 8.3 X 13.9 B
5705 J. dk brown. Habits similar to other
Woodpeckers. Killed this one from a scrub Pine, though they are
usually found in Oaks.
Notes very harsh and sound
as if they were trying a lower
key than their voice is capab
of using, or rather as if it was
made too low in the throat.
Not particularly rare. Rather
shy. Have seen more but small
so far this winter. I have never
seen them out of this range of
mountains
5706 19 Dihypophiues thyroiders 8.8 X 16.2 & jin
J. dk. Brown. Between the muscles
and skin on the upper side of
the wings were innumerable eggs
of some parasite. Not commo
sure. Found in the Pines.
