At 5:30 p.m. Dnalled down to the W.F.C. to dinner.
In the large trees west of the bladwin, there were
many robins and a flock of 20+ Cedar Waxwings.
A hedge of hawthorne is full of berries, no leaves,
but there was no sign that they were being
eaten.
Jan. 16. J.T. and I walked to the top of the hill via Panoramic
Birds very scarce in the lower canyon. A Cooper
Hawk flew over and just after I stopped
looking at him through my 8x, I heard the call of
a Sparrow Hawk calling. So I looked again and
found the Sp. Hawk darting at the Cooper Hawk from
above. Later we found the Sp. Hawk on his usual
perch above the stile at the top. He fryst his eyes
in the ground and occasionally dropped to catch
something.
Said Peteril racing.
Two thrashers were
singing in the canyon. (Hawk)
