J. Rogers 98 4. Feb.19,1938 Univ. Calif. Campus, Berkeley, Calif. We had 20 days of rain, 2 days of clear weather, 2 days of rain, and on this day, a clear though hazy one, the birds were much more noisy than during the two clear days two days ago. I heard Purple Finch in full song and Anderson Warbler singing. Elmer Aldrich recorded Suttecent Warbler for the first time this season on Feb. 16, in Strawberry Canyon. Mar.21,1938 Dr. Milla reported Cliff Swallows for the first time on the campus to-day. Elmer Aldrich saw them yesterday. March 27,1938 1636 Grant St., Berkeley, Calif. To-day while working in the garden (a bright sunny day) I heard many gulls high over head. I soon spotted a bunch 21 to 35 circling so high in the air that it took several seconds to pick them up even tho I could look directly toward them guided by sound. The longer I looked the more gulls I could see, until I counted at least 155. They were in several bunches, and moved slowly in a northwesterly direction. April 6, 1938 Univ. Calif. Campus, Berkeley, Calif. This morning in the trees along Strawberry Creek, SW of the Life Sciences Building, I heard my first Western Flycatcher (the 24th). mother April 7.
