February 29, 1936 Strawberry Canyon, Berkeley, California. General Comment. Weather - a perfect spring day. Sun out brightly, drying up the many mud puddles that haven't been exposed to sun yet so far this year. Probably because this was our first real dry day - with sun enough to dry things out - we were afforded an excellent exhibit of pollen flying from the alder trees in the creek bed. For two or three weeks a few blossoms at the ends of the branches of the many fruit trees around town have been all that the trees could do under existing weather conditions. This is the kind of weather that will bring them out in full bloom in short time. Time - 8 am to 12 noon. Party - 13 students of the Zool. 113 Class led by Dr. Grinnell.
