land and also areas thickly covered
with brush, not sage but more like
rabbit brush. In this clearing
which was once the site of an old
sawmill a ski jump has been
erected. I covered every 50 yards of
this whole area seeing no begining
no vestige of a Horned Lark. I
walked thru forest, meadow,
pasture land, dried marsh land,
open brush land, every type of
place looking for Horned Larks.
Not one did I find. One
place three miles north of town
I shot I saw a Horned Lark,
later shot the bird and found it
to be a Vesper Sparrow. They
look and act like larks and are
found in this rabbit brush. The
back color resembled strongly the
back of the g Lark from Klamath
pass.
Being so close to Crater Lake we
showed they staying a short time
than returning while there we noted
Seara Juneo's, Clark Nutcracker, Thickri
one Audubon warbler, several Western
Bluebirds, and a Camp Robber or
Jay.
