A. Good 1980 Journal Lye Creek, 2090m, ¼ mi. N + ¼ mi. E Chocolate Mtn., Humboldt Co., Nevada [T. 44N, R. 39 E, NE ¼ sec. 23] 5 July Up. 0600 - Temp. 9°C. Weather clear, still. Quickly warmed up - quite warm by 0730. (High today 26°C, continued clear - slight breeze in afternoon. We hunted up Lye Creek in willow thickets for Fox Sparrow but found very few + there were not at all responsive to flushing, etc. It seems that it is too late in the season + the birds are not nearly so territorial as they were. Ca. 0800, having gotten no birds, we moved to: Martin Creek Ranger Station, 2060m, ½ mi N + ¼ mi E. Chocolate Mtn., Humboldt Co., Nevada [T. 44N, R. 39E, NW ¼ sec. 24] Upon arriving here we set up 2 mist nets in the willows behind the station + then went out birding for more Fox Sparrows - Bob + Susan went downstream + I went upstream accompanied by the girl (Lisa - last name?) manning the station. By this time it was even hotter + the birds were less active than before. However I managed to got 1 jinn. Fox Sparrow. One of the nets got a 4. Bob + Susan get more although Bob got 2 jinn. Mtn. Chubchadees (see app. account). The rest of the day (after taking tissues + preparing the few birds we had) was spent doing not much of anything (reading, cleaning the camper, etc.). We had supper w/ Lisa c.a. 1800 + she + I spent a while looking at the stars using a field guide she had. Then to bed ca. 2300. We left the nets up overnight.
