July 1941 At dusk each evening J.T.A. heard a Horned Owl hooting in the distance. A family of quail - about 8 y.g. - Loudsberg. Spotted Towhees off Dancing - second brood. July 21. We drove to Santa Cruz where we patrolled the shore 11:30 - 12:30. At Guilelmot Pt. - Two pairs of Guillemots were carrying food to two holes in the cliff. We watched Band Swallows as they entered holes in the earth above the rocky part of the cliff. And Cliff Swallows were going to the nests they have built on the cliff. Heermann Gulls were numerous along the beaches - about half with white heads. Three large Loons (Common?) were asleep on the bay. Brandt Cormorants were on the rocks. A group of five or six gaster birds flew across a cove and alighted on some rocks but they were too far away for satisfactory identification. July 22-23. The cherry plums are ripe on the tree next to the garage. I have noticed Cal. Jays, a Rob. Thrush, Vireos, Tits and a Grosbeak near the tree. The W. Flycatcher is feeding young - flying in and out of the garage frequently. For July 23. July 25: Cool. Both parents are feeding the young flycatcher. The male is perceptibly larger than the female and was afraid to go to the nest while I was sitting in the car in the garage. The female went without hesitation as she has been sitting without being disturbed when we went in and out; also when we drove the car in and out.
