Maler 1959 Dprisrps, Scamtho barnemani May 22 Catmegca Rive. One seen feeding on seed head at snow bank near tent. Tom heard one yesterday May 23 Few about in tall (2 feet - 3 feet) willows on bar 1 mile upstream. Very light & hoary looking - Saw 2 by tent in evening, also light colored. May 27 One in willows by tent - a male May 28 Found a nest with 3 eggs at 12 A M. Female shielded off. Nest 12" (vorin) from ground in a 20" willow shrub. Located along a stream flowing into the river about 1/2 miles up from camp. On lee of a bank - on S. facing side. The fact that she was sitting lends suspicion & may idea that they may incubate with the first egg. June 3 Few Redpoll at Amist about Terminal building. June 25 A fledgling seen today. In contrast to adults seem to hug cover. Flushed very close from a willow clump. Returned at once to cover, in another + wouldn't leave - stayed low down. Similar to Longspur & Savannah chicks - good selection, protective advantage + all that. Spotted 3 nests in tall willows - all old - possible early nests are low down in better shrubs, one late when willows leaf out?
