Martin Cr. R.S., 7000 ft., Santa Rosa Mts.
Humboldt Co, Nevada.
Sept. 7, 1934
Hawk flying overhead. Saw remains
of a Green-Tailed Towhee which
doubtless furnished a meal for
a hawk.
Sept. 8; 1934
Downstream today. Much same habitats.
Also visited next canyon West finding
same conditions minus the water.
Noticed seven Flickers foraging over
the surface of a rocky projection;
were very actively moving about as
if after some insects.
Sept. 9 - 1934.
Same routine. It gets light about
5:00. Is cold until sun takes an
area. Little activity manifest in bottom
of canyon until sun warms things
up. Overhead today were soaring
two Ravens and one Turkey Vulture.
Two deer seen. Magpies numerous.
There is a game refuge on the
south side of the divide. In this
several Sagehens were seen
as we drove up. Our camp
is a typical public forest service
camp with piped water, tables and
stoves.
