Mayhew 1947 Mar. 1 Strawberry Canyon, U.C. campus, Alameda Co., Calif. About 9 A.M. a pair appeared near the top of a willow thicket. The ♀ has a lighter colored head than the ♂, except for an occasional note, the pair were quiet. About 9:30 A.M. another individual was heard singing at fairly regular intervals on the side of Big C Hill. May 7 U.C. campus, Alameda Co., Calif. At 3:10 P.M. today I located a Spotted Towhee's nest on the ground in a clump of shrubs & trees next to Allston Way between LSB and the Men's Gym. The nest was constructed of rather course grass about a foot from a foxglove plant 5 feet high. The nest was so well hidden that I couldn't find it for quite a while, even though I saw the ♂ land in the grass nearby with food in his mouth. Finally I found it when I saw the ♀ leave the nest. The nest area was completely surrounded by redwoods, and there was an abundance of redwood needles all over the ground around the nest. The nest site was in a hollow so that the top of the nest was flush with the surface of the ground covering. The nest was about 3 1/2" in diameter and about 2" deep. Two young birds were in the nest.
