J. Rodgers 126 Cedar Canyon 5000 ft., Providence Mts., San Bernardino Co., Calif. May 27, 1938 barely see it back under the brush so I aimed wounded carefully and shot. Immediately, a brown headed skink ran out of the brush. I caught it, and looked under the brush. There was my orange headed one dead. I had shot two skinks with one shot, not knowing that there were two there. This noon, Baldway brought trapoles back from Rock Spring that look like Ulyaj; possibly Style areicolor. May 28, 1938 I snared a Uta and put in the "doodle bug hole." Just as it started up the side, [illegible] my attention was distracted by a large green skink with an orange head. I tried to snare the skink but it went down a hole at the base of a bush. I dug the bush out and followed out all the holes I could but didn't get the skink. I snared another Uta and put it in the "doodle bug hole". It ran up the opposite side with very little less ease than it runs along the level. May 29, 1938 Today was a little windier than yesterday. It was windy enough to stay to make snaring lizards difficult. I collected another orange headed green skink, several Cremidophones, and snared an adult collared lizard. This afternoon, I helped E. Aldrick photograph reptiles.
