Bowman 1952 Journal 27. Aug 26. Termez Cr., 6 mi. NW Blond, 8500 ft., Sandoval Co., New Mexico. From Tres Piedras drove to Espanola, and then via highway no. 4 to Los Almos. From Los Almos (where we were not permitted to enter the city) we drove to our present location passing through "Grande Valley", a large meadow, several square miles in extent. Found over 20+ sparrow hawks sitting along the fence posts here. Previous to this, on N side of Rabbit Mt., 9000 ft., Sandoval Co., N.Mex., found a small pond, 1/2 feet deep, and about 1/8 acre in size, where I collected 1 Hyla (WCR catalogue) & J.C.Russell collected one large Amblyptoma tigrinum here beside a rock. By the appearance of the one of the rotten log nearby, & the apparent "turnover" of all likely rocks & boards, some other "herp" collectors had recently stopped at this location. At 5:00 P.M. set out 26 Museum Specials (oatmeal bait) along Termez Cr. & along the canyons, beside rocks (granite) and at bases of Douglas Firs & Blue Spruce. Could get no response from Horned Owl or Screech Owl (M.S.T.) calling after dark. By 7:00 P.M., it is now dark. Observed the following animals around camp in early evening: Steller Jay, Gimpco, Chipping Sparrow, Chickadee (Mt.), Chickadee, & Golden-mantled Ground Squirrel. Aug 27. Temp. at Comp., 5:40 AM, (M.S.T.) was 45º F. Much cold air drainage into valley where camped. Quick warm- up when sun arose over mountains at 7:00 PM. Caught a total of 13 mice in 26 sets of Museum Specials
