We drove to Boulder Creek in the afternoon.
We found every thing in blossom, Eugenias,
Ceanothus, Flowering Crab-apple, Tamarisk,
Mountain Ash and Lilacs. Also Baby Blue Eyes,
Lavender, a few poppies (red) and California
Poppies. Birds too were very abundant;
Chickadees, juncos, Cassin and Warbling
Wren, Black-throated Gray, Bulbuls and,
Lutiscient warblers. No yellow warblers yet.
Black-billed Throats and Olive-sided Flycatcher
heard occasionally. Saw a pair of Allen
Hummers and a Vaux Swift. Nothing
fishers yet.
April 23. Worked in the garden most of the
time until we left at 3:30 p.m. for Berkeley.
Beautiful weather - warm but partly
overcast. Heard the Hermit Thrush.
April 25. A Lazuli Bunting sang near the
house. I saw a Cooper Hawk, circling
just above the trees next the house.
At 5 p.m. we took Prof. and Mrs. Wade-Garay
across the two bridges - Immenseable flocks
of Sandpipers on the sand at W. Berkeley and
was the Toll Gate. Many Bonaparte Gulls.
Cloudy most of the day.
