of the day skinning. Additional bird species
seen at camp were:
Nycticorax nycticorax - 3 flew over about 7:30 p.m.
Ixoreus naevius -1-(seen by Sullivan).
Basslerina amoena - 14
Zenaidura macroura - 1 (flew over camp at dusk)
leaded up stream)

Sorex knowbridgi - 1
Peromyscus maniculatus - 4
Zapus trinotatus - 5
Sorex pacificus - 1 }
