christmas, J.H. 1963 Journal 17 June 3 mi. N. Charleston Peak, 8,900 ft. Spring Mtus., Clark Co., Nev. Saw a flicker in road near camp shot at it & is flew to fire - a long shot got it. To camp - heard flickers went down canyon 50-yds & shot it. Dave Ayreab & sapsucker came in close got it also. If these birds turn out to be R & F's, I believe they are mated pairs for all were collected in about the same area. Waxbling wrens over 25-yds below tent. Lots of loud singing. Saw 1 audubon warbler. Most bird activity, especially singing is in canyon bottoms aspen prannment. Many singing Cassin finches Puthatches high and quiet. At least one pair of darker green swallows flying over camp site. Saw one Red-tailed Hawk soar over. That Eupidonus in fir on V facing slope. * They - the 2 pair of woodpeckers - were probably mated pairs. At 3:15 p.m. we were shining in the tent when we heard a roaring of heavy wing beats - I ran out of the tent an on the rocky hill side to the N, slowly walking up hill was a turkey. It disappeared up hill, after Red & Fletcher saw it. The only feature about the bird which was about 40 yds away when I first saw it was the ocher-tan band at the end of the tail - the rest of the bird was just dark. Could this be from the stables a mile below - or an introduction. Warm clear day with small fluffy cumuli passing over.
