a few Gambels came up one by one from the stream and
crossed the path into the shrubbery above. Golden-
crowns in full plumage. A Vermint Thrush was scolding
acat on the other bank. An Allen Humming bird was
douing the pendulum. A Grosbeak sang while flying.
As we returned an Anna Hummer did the pendulum
dropping just above a perched female.
P.M. Van Franciscs. A few Glaucous- winged Gulls, one in mature
plumage; several Western in full plumage and many
Calif- Gulls followed the boat. Three birds that looked
like terns flew directly nest low over water, very white,
April 19. Cool Golden-crowned Sparrows were back on
the table. A Vermint Thrush came through the garden
in the late afternoon. As I sat on the porch (5:30 p.m)
watching a gopher opening a hole and eating a fox
glove plant a pair of quail came along the banks. A
second male was driven array. As they approached
the gopher they stood still and peered into the hole, then
began the quint quint note. Three pairs of quail
came by - one of the males was the very same one.
Mrs. Leavens reported the Gambel Sparrows gone from her
garden which was full two days ago. Three times I heard
a sound which reminded me of the noise made by
the Collie's Hummer at the bottom of the arc in a
pendulum swing. Heard a Yellow Warbler three
times as I drove part the campus on Alston Way.
