Bowman 1952. 33 Journal. Aug. 31. 6mi. S. Bernalillo, 5500 ft., Sandoval Co. N.H. (See page 30) During afternoon of Aug. 30, we Russell drove to the Univ. of N.H. after leaving Terry Russell, Stu Hendry & I in camp. He picked up our surplus equipment which had been stored there, & deposited them with us. He & Jerry plan to leave for Berkeley tomorrow A.M. in order to be booked in time for the opening of deer season in California. Stu & I will take the bus to Albuquerque on Sept. 2. & pick up the repaired truck & O.P. Pearson. Aug. 31 - Ward & Jerry Russell departed at 7:00 A.M. Caught 1 Ouachitup, & one small Perognathus along fence line set. 5 other traps were trapped 4 of missing. Caught no mice in set under cottonwoods. Also caught one Scaphiopus in trap line along fence. There were many birds in cottonwoods in morning. Apparently a migration of warblers: The Rio Grande valley should make an excellent pathway for migrating birds (a N-S direction at this locality). The following species were noted: Rileyated Warbler, (the most abundant species today) Yellow Warbler, Grace Warbler, Solitary Vireo, Goldfinch (sq?), White-breasted Sparrow Hawk, Mourning Dove, Hatched Nuthatch (?), Hairy Woodpecker (2), Smelled one Skunk. Blue-tailed Skunks observed in fair abundance. Very difficult to shoot with .22 shot shells without injury. The screech owl shot by Russell last night contained many grasshoppers in its stomach. Shot another screech owl in cottonwoods by camp in evening. Damaged specimen so badly, it had to be discarded.
