J. Rodgers Frank Clarke Ranch, 7 mi. SW. Laytonville Mendocino Co., Calif. April 1, 1938 20. Juncus 21. Chestnut-backed Chickadee 22. Plain Titmouse 23. Ruby-crowned Kinglet 24. Calif. Jay 25. Western Meadowlark. Clarke says that there are also quail and grouse in the country. He says that usually grouse can be heard drumming at this time of the year. Mrs. Winchester said that she used to see salamanders a foot long in the stream about 1/2 mile west of the ranch house. I presume they were Diapontodon, but I was too tired of climbing that hill to go look for them. We arrived at the ranch home at about 11 o'clock. I paid Mrs. Winchester $5.00 for the use of her horse. Mr. Clarke couldn't be persuaded to take any money. Carl and I spent an hour collecting salamanders and at noon, had lunch with Mr. Clarke. About 12:40 we left for Berkeley and arrived there about 8:30.
