Dendroica aestiva = petechia
June 17 Chubb Lake, 5250 ft., in Sec. 22, T 17 N, R 12 E, Nevada Co. Calif. - 1 heard singing in area of black oaks + chaparral + young cedars.
June 29 Soda Springs, 6750 ft. Nevada Co. Calif. - 2 singing from tall,
June 30 dense willow thickets along S. fork Yuba R. This is the same
area as the highest altitudinal occurrence of singing
individuals I noted in 1948. For some reason this sp.
does not seem to occur in the willows + alders
near Sugar Bowl Lodge (7000 ft.), perhaps because of
the snow lingering up to 1 month longer there -
leaves coming out late as a consequence.
June 24 Cisco Grove, 5650 ft., on S. fork Yuba R., Placer Co., Calif. - 3 heard
(am.) singing in 1/8 mile of riparian woodland consisting
of tall black cottonwoods + short willows, dogwood,
(p.m.) W. end Donner Lake, 6000 ft., Nevada Co., Calif. - 1 singing
from strip of aspen trees + tall shrubs along inlet stream
creek. Many pines are admixed here even up to the
June 25 5100+ ft., mouth of Cold Cr. canyon, S. Sierraville, Sierra Co. Calif.
2 heard singing in riparian woodland.
June 27 Truckee River between Verdi's Reno, 4800-4500 ft., Washoe Co., Nev.
3 heard singing in black (near Verdi) and Fremont cotton-
woods along foothill + valley stream.
June 28 Boca, 5500 ft., Nevada Co., Calif. - 1 heard singing in willow
- alder riparian strip along Truckee River..
July 4 1/2 mi. NE Lake Van Warden, 6800 ft., Placer Co., Calif. - 2 seen, 1 often
a singing ?, in tall willow thickets at border of broad
goldenrod + clover meadow and open conifer forest. This is
about 1 1/2 mi. E of June 29 & June 30 records. Still
none have been located at Sugar Bowl 1 1/2 mi to SSE.
