Mayhew 1950 Red-winged Blackbird 1. May 16 Conaway Ranch, 2 mi. east of Woodland, Yolo Co., Calif. 2 nests of this species were found in tules in the main drainage ditch. One nest had 4 eggs, the other 2 eggs. The eggs are bright blue with dark brown streaks on them, especially near the large end. 2 other nests were found, but as there were no eggs present in either nest, I am not sure whether this species of blackbird or the yellow-headed blackbird, which was also found in the same tule patches, were responsible. May 20 I found a nest with 3 young just hatched in the last day or 2. The nest was in the tules in the main drainage ditch at the extreme south-eastern end. June 21 The remains of 11 nests were seen in the wheat fields as the grain was being harvested. All of the nests seen were attached directly to wheat stalks, and were from 12 to 36 inches above the ground. June 22 Today 22 more nests were seen in the wheat fields. They were all constructed in the same manner as the ones seen on June 21. 1952 May 1 Conaway Ranch, 2 mi. east of Woodland, Yolo Co., Calif. (1) Today a nest was found in which 3 eggs had been deposited. One other (2) nest was found, but it contained no eggs.
