1943. Jan. 1. Return trip from Boulder Creek. (See 1942) Jan. 2. Colder. Birds had not been fed for several days but when I put out food several Fox Sparrows and two Spotted Towhees came almost immediately to get the oatmeal. Put out a fresh pomegranate. In the afternoon I took a walk up Panoramic Stile at the Way to the top of the hill. On the south side of the hill there was no wind (from N.W.) and it was quite warm. Birds were very quiet but I checked off the following (2:30-3:30 p.m.): W. Bluebirds - 9 on electric wires opp. 21 Morewood, Purple Finch 1 x 2; R.-c. Knight 7 - quietly; Wrentit 3 pros. Anna Hummer 1 singing, perched on bare branch opp. juniper (Dartie place); I heard farther on, Brown Towhees 3 pros.; Spotted Ti. 2. Thrush 1 singing (up Nainlett Canyon beyond road). Sh. Sh. Hawk, one note from a low perch, circled up about 100 ft., then flew S. toward head of Dwight Way (We wonder birds had been silent.) Uguisu Wren 2. Hermit Thrush 2, Aud.
