Ixoreus naevius
1.
Nov. 13
Jewell L., Tilden Regional Park, Contra Costa Co.,
NE of Berkeley, Calif.
at least 6 seen, probably many more
present, in woods SW of lake. all but
one of those seen were feeding on berries
of a single large madrone tree.
Only 1 gave any call note: this one uttered
a single "tschook" as it perched momen-
tarily on [illegible] a large branch of a live oak;
after flying up from, on or near the ground
in front of me.
Nov. 27
none that I was sure of,
at above locality.
Sequoia Park, E. of Oakland, Alameda Co., Calif.
common in a small area at edge of
dense redwood grove. Several large oaks
and madrones were the dominant trees
in the area, and the thrushes were mostly
flying from the madrones as we approached.
1949
Apr. 10
near
Jawbone Ranger Sta., 3500' alt., Stanislaus Nat'l Forest,
Tuolumne Co., Calif.- when I "squeaked" to attract
some warblers from bushes, a ? Varied Thrush came
in from area of mixed yellow pines & ceanothus -
manzanita chaparral and alighted momentarily on
small fallen log under bushes [illegible] front of me; but
it took immediate alarm upon sighting me & flew
to lower branch 20 ft. up in yellow pine and scolded
me with the usual "tschook" note:
