1929- July 5. A cooling fog came in during the late afternoon. Walked into Sunny Gulch in the evening - An Olive-sided Flycatcher was pair calling. Grosbeak and Thrush sang. A Brown Towhees were perched in the top of a hazel above Morsewood Rd just before dark. One was vibrating its wings and singing a soft voice melodious long wholly unlike the usual attempt. The other was perched two feet away, apparently unmoved. When I stopped to watch them they flew away in different directions. Young brown towhees are full grown. The young spotted towhees are very much at home on the table. The parents seem to be brooding again as the male sings constantly in the brush above the drinking fountain- A banded male feeds on the table. July 6. fog. July 7- fog. July 8 -9- Cool- July 10. Cool. Drove to Sacramento leaving Berkeley about 4 p.m. Went via Antioch Bridge and along river. Very pretty ride. Almost no fruit except peaches. July 11. Drove on to Cisco, stopping for lunch at Colfax - Several robins noticed at Auburn and Loomis and on up. Mock- ingbird singing just below Loomis. Blue-fronted Jay just above Colfax and Fox Sparrow below Blue Canyon. At Cisco Mt. White-crowned Sparrows and Fox Sparrows were singing freely, and Evening Grosbeaks (4 males) visited the kitchen yard at the hotel frequently. In the evening a night lark was heard. July 12. I walked up the mountain trail above the station through brushy land with an occasional group of red firs, tamaracks or Jeffrey pines. Two young Calliope hummingbirds came to investigate me, buzzing about within three feet of my head. Heard a Red-breated Nuthatch, Mt. Thrush, a Vireo (I don't think) and others.
