1938 May 15. Boulder Creek. Rained all night and most of the morning. A wonderful chorus of birds at dawn: Olive sided Flycatcher, Tanager, Grosbeak, Warbling and Cassin's Vireo, Black-throated Grey Warbler. Thrush not singing yet. Before dawn I heard the Purple Martins clearly- Flowers', Lupine, Ceanothus, Broom, rock roses, roses, pink locust, sweet William, Baby-blue Eyes - May 16. Berkeley. A Purple Finch sang at 4 a.m. then at 4:15 a Song Sparrow began, followed by a Rio Thrush (whistle only), a Spotted Purple Finch. By 4:30 a Brown Thrasher, Grosbeak, joined in. The Thrush began to sing. Then the House Wren, W. Flycatcher and Warblers - By 5:20 the dawn chorus was ended. And at Walnut Park (noticed a pair of California building a nest outside kitchen) At 9:15 Mrs. Wilburs group went to Saranap Station where we found a Long-tailed Chat in full song. He sang continuously from 9:35 to nearly 11 a.m. when we went on to Mrs. Kuig's ranch. After lunch we went to the Sweet Nursery.
