On the hillside we found in addition to these, the House Wren, Ash-throated Flycatcher, and Coast Jay and in the marsh the Trail flycatcher out on a telegraph wire and called "fleep-a-deer", a pair of Saur Swifts flew overhead and Brewer and Red-winged Blackbirds were numerous. A Wood Pewee was heard above Ukiah, buzzards were abundant all along the redwood highway. On the way home, May 26 near Cloverdale one rose from the highway just in front of the car and dropped a ground squirrel which had evidently just been run over - a fresh kill. Several buzzards hovered near and no doubt one swooped down behind us and Got it. Red-tails which were seen frequently in Lake Co. and Napa Co. were not seen in Mendocino Co. On the highway in Long Valley the white creantheus with graceful long tail feathers, also bunchy white and a low growing blue creantheus were abundant. Dogwood was in bloom.
