Lake Tahoe, 1938 red fins stand high among the manzanita brushes which cover the ground. The manzanita was in full bloom, also the squaw carpet, acreeeping ceanothus with blue flowers. The night was surprisingly warm. The Mt. Zuid seems to set as early as the Valley Zuid! June 7. Clear, warm. We had breakfast outdoors at 8 a.m. About nine o'clock we started out for a walk among the woods to the south where we found many birds in full song: The Yosemite Fox Sparrows and Green-tailed Towhees were abundant in the manzanita, and in the wood we found the Red-chested Nuthatch; Hammond, and Olive-sided Flycatchers and the W. Wood Pewee. Yellow and Paleolated Warblers were abundant and a few Audubon Warblers were heard. Warbling Vireos and W. Tanagers were everywhere and we soon found the Hermit Thrushes in full song. There were two not far apart, vying with each other in song. Both Savina Juncos and Cliff-sping Sparrows were singing and the Cassin's Warbler was heard. Calliope Hummers were on the edge of a dry meadow and the Blue-fronted Jay was oc- casionally seen or heard. A few robins were about—not too many. Late in the morning we heard the Mt. White-crowned Sparrow and an arribler whose song I did not know. Later I learned it was the Calaveras Warbler. At 3:10 a.m. the Tree Swallows began to twitter.
