Cogswell 1949 Carpodacus mexicanus Aug. 13 S.E. end of Big Lagoon, Humboldt Co., Calif. - 1 seen on , a flying up from , a gravel bank in bed of Maple Creek near the marsh. It gave the nasal call characteristic of this species. Aug. 31 (2½ mi.N) Yellow Creek, 400 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif. I collected 1 from the shrub and blackberry "woodland" at the border of an old walnut orchard here. Several have been observed in this area for the past 3 days also. They, along with many other species seem to be attracted by the ripe blackberries, coffeeberries, and other fruits which abound here. Sep. 3 2½ mi. N Yellow Creek, 500 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif. I heard calling in area of tall shrubs, openly spaced, on the Patterson Ranch here in the Trinity River valley.
