Chamaea fasciata
1.
Nov.21 Upper Mahube Ranch, 7 mi. S & 1+ mi. Wkeleyville,
Lake Co., Calif. A few songs and more
frequent "k.mrn." sing notes disclosed a
number in this chaparral, which in
general aspect is quite like my study
area above Arcades, Los Angeles Co., Calif.
when tits are, however, either less abundant
here, or, greater silence at this time
of year makes them more difficult
to find.
Nov.27 Jewell L. Tilden Park, Contra Costa Co., NE of
Berkeley, Calif. - an estimated 15 heard,
and a few of them seen, in chaparral on
slope w. of pond. Most of them were simply
calling "kmmr". Several typical & type
songs were heard; only 1 full J song.
Dec.18 Tomales Point, Marin Co., Calif.
2 ?? heard "singing" from bush. lupine &
Baccharis chaparral on slopes less than 1 mi
from outermost (N.W.) end of point.
Dec.26- Mt. Wilson, alt. 5730', San Gabriel mts.,
Los Angeles Co., Calif. - Both J & ? type of
song heard from E steep ridge (chaparral
covered) 1000 ft. or so below Echo Pt. There
was a little snow on the ground where the
birds were singing, & the temperature where
we were (on Echo Pt.) was approximately 28°F,
with an occasional stiff wind gust from SE.
