orchard looking for a place in which to roost a while in the sun. This he found in a low pine where he stayed quietly until 2:15. He was inspected here by two brown towhees, a golden-crowned sparrow and an Anna hummer, none of which were at all excited about him, but seemed to regard him curiously. A slow march, with occasional dustings, brought him at 2:43 to position No. 1 in the ladder tree. At 2:45 " 2 . Though this was in the shade he he settled there for a long rest. 3:03 " 3 3:03½ " 4 3:10 " 5 It was sunny there. For a time he sat facing away from the roost for the first time noted. This was apparently to warm his other side. 3:19 " 6 The take-off point. 3:20 " 7 The roost for the rest of the day. Seven moves in all in 37 min. (Temp. 57, dead calm, hazy sunlight) (Without attempting a complete analysis of his behavior during the past few days, it will be noted that there are a few unexpected and puzzling circumstances if we try to correlate his roostings and risings with temperatures. For example: On the 20th. it was 68 when he came down at 11:55. One would expect him to leave his roost earlier on a warm morning. The mornings following were colder and he came down earlier. Also there appears to be no close parallelism between temperatures and roosting time. This only in passing. There are, of course, other factors). November 26th. (Sunrise 7:01, sunset 4:52). Bright and sunny in the early morning hours with heavy fog just below the level of the upper garden and a tendency for wisps from the upper surface to rise to greater heights. These are so distinctly outlined that one can actually place himself so that it is possible to have one hand in the fog and one where there is none. 10:30 A.M. Rhody was still in his roost at 10:15. The fog, climbing the slopes from the bay, had, at least temporarily, gained the ascendancy at that point. On returning from R's roost, Brownie, the truant, came out of the bushes and jumped to my hand for worms. He is much averse to the open places, keeping well to cover. 12:35. Rhody was visited several times during the forenoon, each time being found in his roost and showing no interest whatever in my presence or other extraneous factors. He was still there at 12:30 when I left him. (Temp. 58, sunny, warm in sun. slightly hazy, no wind at all). At 1:03 he had come down from his roost and was now at his post. An Intelligent Action of Rhody's 1:20 P.M. I have just witnessed behavior on the part of Rhody which, to my way of thinking, clearly indicates the possession of some faculty, which, if not actual intelligence, is at least akin to it. Certainly it had every appearance of an action based upon judgment acquired from experience. Rhody not up at 12:30 P.M.
