Differentiated from parkman by presence of superciliary stripe. On return trip, near bridge above S. W. Hall we saw a willow woodpecker, a rather rare campus resident. A pair of sierra junco were also seen. - Near S. W. Hall, parkman wrens were observed foraging about in underbrush and carrying insect food to a nest located in a hole in limb of live-oak. In same locality, we heard wood pewee, lutescent warbler, coast jay, (call note similar to that of red-tail hawk), western flycatcher, warbling vireo, song sparrow, grosbeak and anna hummingbird. Horizon about 26 species.
