July 8 On a trip to this same spot today one of the group located a NEST in a horizontal branch of spruce, some 50 ft. from the ground, 12 ft. out from the trunk. The pair of flycatchers was again dive-bombing at a Steller's Jay which made repeated efforts to hop up the 'ladder' of branches in an adjacent tree. The flycatchers came swooping thru the spaces between branches with bills snapping; & the jay always retreated around the trunk. Foraging by the flycatchers was done over nearby huckleberry oak, manza-nita, & little cherry shrub thickets, from perches 30 to 90 ft. up. July 9 7800ft., 21/2 mi. N, 31/4 mi.
