Itinerary, etc.
Feb. 10 Mrs. Vert. Zool., Univ. Calif., Berkeley, Cal.
Around the Campus and in Strawberry
Canyon, Cedar Waxwings have seemed
scant this season. I have only seen
or heard them 3 or 4 times in the past
month. The only flock I remember of
having seen during that time was
small (not more than 10 birds). Monday,
Feb. 6, I saw 4 or 5 bunches of Waxwings
alight in one flock on 5 wires. While
they were on the wires, I judged
them to be 250 and 300. They took off,
during flight
and were joined by another flock
of about 175 or 200.
