70 1932. The Horned Larks were feeding where the grass had been burned and allowed very close approach. When they flew they alighted in the same area a little farther from us. The Savannah Sparrows spent their time on the slope of the hill where grass had not been burned and where scattering baccharis bushes grew. They frequently alighted on the tops of the bushes. Sept. 20. A Lutescent Warbler came for water. Sept. 22. A Killdeer called many times as it flew over the canyon about 10 a.m. Pure distinct heard. Thrasher still sings continuously; occasionally imitates song of Tennessee, call of House Wren, song of one of Mrs. Strong's aviary birds which reminds me of the European Blackbird. Robins came into canyon in evening. Sept. 24. At Dumbarton Bridge as the tide was just beginning to turn fifty or more St. Blue Herons were luried up where the water was a few inches deep on the east side of the main body of water. Many flocks of Sandpipers flew up from the roadway, others were on the rocks. A few Phalaropes and pintail ducks were seen. Sept. 25. Drove home by the shore line from Santa Cruz to San Gregorios; lunched at La Honda, then followed Skyline road to San Francisco. Beautiful day with very little fog anywhere; a little over the ocean north of Pigeon Pt. On the shore a few Curlews and Willets and one flock of Sandpiping (?) were seen. (Miss Smith reported a Fox Sparrow near head of Strawberry Canyon - 2 Purple Finches visit her table - eat sunflowers, hemp and melon seeds.)
