"Cowgill meadow" July 3 near Sugar Bowl Lodge, 7000 ft., 1.2 mi. 55W Donner Pass, Placer Co., Calif. 1 singing(!) from dense willow-thickets in wet meadow. The bird was also seen at close range. Since we have not found them in this area during frequent coverage in the past 2 weeks, I assume this occurrence represents up-mountain post-breeding dispersal. July 5 7100-7150 ft., 3/4 mi. W Donner Pass, Placer Co., Calif. - During 3/4 hr. spent along a road in + near thickets of bitter cherry, tobacco-brush, snowbrush, & aspen 1 full vigor song of this species was heard + 13-14 young were seen. The latter foraged both in the shrubs and in admixed feathered white firs. These birds again probably have moved up from lower altitudes since none were found here on visits to same spot in June.
