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.
