J. Rodger-1939 Itinerary, etc. May 22 W.S. Rodgers Residence, Boulder Creek Santa Cruz Co., Calif. 5:30 am. It rained last night before I left in Berkeley. Joye and one two boys went to San Jose yesterday then to here last evening. We encountered almost along the way; also sunbirds. It has rained all night here. This morning my attention was aroused by a Vireo. It sounds much like a Cassin Vireo, but varies more than I remembered them as doing. There are several around here. It also seems to fast, being almost exactly as fast as a Black-headed Grosbeak. Another peculiarity is the last note which often resembles in pattern the Olive-sided Flycatcher [illegible] time 1 sec. So far follow; 1. Horned Owl (last night) 2. Cassin's Vireo 3. W.
