BLM land along Cut Creek, 1 mile E. of Camp Rover adjacent to Dinosaur National Monument (Grassy Section), Uinta Co., Utah. Elevation 5000 feet.
June 16 I found a nest of this species 18 feet up deep in the interior of a 28-foot cottonwood meta actually placed in a 40 yard stretch of riparian gallery woodland, this as a result of an adult (prob ?) carrying in a fork item. This food item was a Cnemidophorus sayardi brought in from and buscleback to the south of Cut Creek. I saw what was probably the same bird also carrying a whiptail lizard on the other coming in from the west buscleback.
Morning of June 14. These lizards, as ranges indicated in Stebbins' field guide, must be Cnemidophorus tigris.
