157 & White crowned Sparrow 27/19. Testes
large Taken by Gilmore from
chinquapin at 3000 ft. 4 mi. N.E. Coyote
peak.
walked to top of Schoolhouse
Peak this afternoon with Dr
Yunnell keeping special watch
for Horned larks and Savannah
Sparrows. Surely if they are
in this area they would have
been found along this open
gentle slope bare in places, with
some refuge areas and an
occasional isolated gamm oak.
The peak itself is not a peak
but just a rise in the ridge.
The same may be said for
coyote peak and many other
so-called "peaks" A bench mark
recently placed on the summit
did not give the elevation but a
map gives it as 3055 There
are a good many sheep
grazing around but the
range is not over stocked.
There is ample grass and
indeed this is the best range
I have seen yet in our area.
