of the rock bunting shoe birds; no others. Near the summit of the Saratoga grade, on the ocean side of the ridge a Lazuli Bunting was singing. I heard it in the same place on July 16 Lois reported seeing a Spotted Towhee feeding a young bird which was perched on a branch of poison oak. The bird showed no tail feathers and looked very young to be out of the nest. Also a family of quail on the campus, the young perhaps a week old. July 19. Lois saw a family of very small quail just west of the Stadium. Warm- July 21. Many families of young out of the nest. Very young Brush-tits about. Saw a Hutton Vireo from the window. I saw the brush-tits chasing other brush-tits when the flock was east of the house. It seemed to me that a pair had a family of young just out of the nest and a wandering flock had come into the same trees. Perhaps the parents were trying to drive them away from their young. Linnets and goldfinches fly over frequently. Linnets have been near the house more than in any season I can remember but that may be due to the abundance of blackberries just above our place. Blue jays are carrying food from the table into the woods n.e. of house.
