1943 Jan. 13. (Contini). When I went out to feed the birds about 8:30 a.m. I heard a Wren-tit, a Virginia Wren and a Hutton Vireo singing. Birds that came for food: 8 Fox. 8 Sparrows, 2 Sp.Tow. The pomegranate I wired to the branch on Jan.10 was gone except for a piece of skin hanging on the wire. A large piece of the skin and some seeds were on the floor of the porch, and there was enough dampness to show the tracks of the animal that had taken it. It measured about two or two and a half inches in length & thick. (O-possum ?) Jan. 14. Still beautiful weather. No wind. Not too much fog. Birds eager for food: 6-8 Fox. 8p., 3 Sp.Towhees, 1 Song Sparrow. A Hermit Thrush Came to bathe. At 1:15 p.m. 2 thrashers bathed thoroughly twice. First time I have seen them least of time there this year. 2 Song Sp. singing 10 a.m.-1s.W. At 1:30 I walked to Hamilton Canyon - Many more birds than yesterday. Birds on almond trees swollen.
