Christensen, J. Jr. 1962 Journal 19 June Seeking ten Creeks, 6700 ft., Snake Range, White Pine Co., Nevada and reminded the "Barbarian" (?) & squawked for a jay & the chat answered - I followed it for 45 minutes before blasting it with 90 in dense brush at a "movement." Spotted towhees are the most common bird here - shot only one. Collected a lone Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, it spoiled by the late afternoon. The Talmie warbler was seen in a dense leafy tangle, but couldn't get a shot at it. The voice is very loud. They appear shy as hell. Chipping Sparrows are the common but not abundant. The vireo (salitair) was acting like a flycatcher, got the warbling vireo by mistake. No mammals seen, but several small lizards. Under a current brush I found a tail feather of a grouse & aver a wide area the contour feathers. Ward identifies the feathers, no mistake here. What was the bird doing this low - nesting? And who traveled it over - none of the feathers were chewed. A dense tangle 15 ft. from the stream which is invisible from the site. By 10:30 a.m. the day was very warm. Many fluffy cormuli and down in camp. Saw two mourning doves at about 9:15 p.m. we walked on up the road after owls - we got no responses close - the & didn't answer. Two answered at a distance - one S. & the other on hill above camp to E. I approached it - high in a ponderosa pine but it soon shot up & flew off - probably too many lights & too much noise.
