30 Nevada a great abundance of birds. After lunch we went out to Minden stopping at the only tule marsh we had seen where we found Crocets, Coots, [illegible] Goose (Cackling?), Tule Wren, Yellowthroat, Bald-billed Grebes and Marsh Hawks. In Minden we saw a Ring-necked Pheasant. We drove about Minden which is a very neat, prosperous looking town with good business buildings and train houses (some brick) with pretty lawns and gardens. Birds trees were especially beautiful.
