Behle 1934- Klamath Pass, Siskiyou co., California August 20 shot the two, we retraced our route back into California. After searching two hours along the flanks of the Klamath pass ranch we gave it up. The birds previously seen that we thought might have been Larks proved to be Vesper Sparrows. Next we pushed on to Lakeview via Dairy, Bly etc. all along the way as usual I've stopped and walked over to find through likely looking places. Finally about 6:00 P.M. as we were within sight of Lakeview we saw some of the long sought birds in an open space beside the road. Some were feeding, some were still remaining in the shade. I shot 15 birds in the next half hour. We then drove to Town, rented a cabin at the auto camp. August 21 Lakeview, Lake Co., Oregon. spent most of the day putting up the birds taken last evening. All but two juvenals were made into skins. Weights were taken last evening about two hours after the birds were killed.
