Boulevard, JT 1941 25 May 31 Russian Gulch State Park, Mendocino Co., Calif. Kingfisher Violet Olive - green Swallows Black Oyster - catcher After an early supper Viola and I hiked with our bedding up North Trail to the Pine Barrens. Josephine accompanied us with the traps. We set 39 Museum Specials baited with English walnut along either side of an old road running NW and curving W from the boundary fence. Traps set 20 feet apart in typical pine barren vegetation of Rhododendron, Vaccinium, trachelium, manzanita, Gasteria, chinquapin, pygmy cypress, pygmy pygmy pine, bishop pine and tanbark oak. We lay our tarpaulins and sleeping bags down in a softly needled portion of a long - unused old road, slapped mosquitoes, watched the stars, saw a bat, and listened to Viola talk for an hour or so. June 1 Jo came up the trail to the pine barrens this morning at 5:45 AM while I was still standing one leg donning a sock. We collected traps set last night with catch of only 1 Sorex sp. and 1 Peromyscus maniculatus. Three traps sprung, I caught an adult Hyla, both hopping from bush to bush. Species observed: Spotted Towhee, Olive - sided Flycatcher, Wren-tit, Band-tailed Pigeon.
