Bowman 1952 Journal 8. Aug. 13 11.5 mi. NE Chama, 10,000 ft., Rio Arriba Co., San Juan Mts., New Mexico On wooded slopes, found extensive areas of tree falls. Much of these fallen trees have rotted away providing very suitable habitats for salamander. However none have been found after considerable effort. Much insect food under rotting logs. Water temperature of stream beside camp at 7:30 A.M. in shade, 48°F. Air temp. in shade in some locality, same time, 51.5°F. Slight rainfall during afternoon today. Morning clear, warm, slight west wind. Animal observations by other party members (today): Brewer Blackbird (1 shot), Steller Jay (1 shot), Violet Green Swallow (1 shot) -- all by Terry C. Russell. T.C. Russell also found the remains of 3 rabbits in the woods during past 2 days. Possibly these were taken by owls. J.C. Russell saw one bat fly by camp at 7:40 P.M. (MST). -- almost dark. Ward C. Russell found a small horned lizard (about 2" long) under our truck, on gravelly clay soil during morning. WCR reported hearing Olive-sided Flycatcher in the past few days and yesterday, he saw 2 House Wrens. Yesterday, visitors to the camp reported seeing what we decided were water ouzels along streams, about 1/4 mi. SE of our camp. I saw none today in hiking along one mile of stream north of camp. Several small trout (4"-5" estimate) seen in the shallow water (no more than 10" deep most places). At 6:00 P.M. set out approx. 40 Museum Specios along streams for shrews, and neighboring trees, a loop for Peromyscus et al. One owl(?) pellet picked up by Lonbry contained the fore-limb of a pocket gopher(?).
