the bush. Further on I came on to a new type of wren. The song especially was wonderfully low and clear altho the bird was no larger than a Vignora. While passing thru a grassy plot I flushed one of the yellowthroat like birds from a clump of grass and discovered a nest with three eggs-- typically yellow throat. The nest was of sage grass and flat blades looking exactly like yellowthroats nests. The eggs were possibly more like Bluebilled Wren. I got both male and female but could not find the female after I disturbed her. I saw several other species today at the end of the trip but had no time to chase them down and had already hit exceeded my daily quota. Again we heard a hawk, the same as before. We believe it to be the Butes My Godhawk. All the way home }
