Sept. 13
Traps shot for 1/2 hrs., 6 to 7:30 am.
5 sparrows (3 males, 2 ♀).
with 2 heavy 10's + 3 light dust - 1 bga.
Nov. 14, 1913,
Set four traps in shrubbery on
north side of Physiology Building.
Baited with wheat. A good rain
casting over a week has set the
grass growing. They have cultivated
some of the ground in the rear
vicinity preparatory to planting grass.
Consequently the sparrow flock
to this locality to feed. Juncos
and white-crowned sparrows are
very abundant where the traps were
set and it is possible that they
will be the first trapped. Wheat
cost 25c.
