Followed along second river bottom 1/8 mile west. Sign of gophers, Dipodomys. Heard one chipmunk at edge of bench along logs, coyote tracks and Deer tracks. It looked as though the coyote had lunged at a dog or cat since the tracks showed where it had turned and dug in near a fresh hole. Spotted Sand piper piping away along river. Chipping Sparrows seem
