February 22, 1936 37.6.
I heard the voice of a California
Thrasher coming from the
direction of the chaparral-covered
south facing slope just south
of this part of Strawberry Canyon;
a perfect place for a California
Thrasher. A typical upper sonoran chaparral bird.
On the crest of the surrounding
the canyon a strip of conifers
has been planted. This provides
a place suitable for Golden-
crowned Kinglets and as I
entered the region a flock of
them happened to be foraging
by and crossed the road in
front; we then walked down
the ridge out sight from the
road. This region also yielded
Ruby-crowned Kinglets and
Nutting's Flycatchers.
