Cogswell 1950 Junco oreganus 2 June 28 Sugar Bowl Lodge, 7600 ft., [see p. 17] - both members of a pair which seems to be occupying the stream banks & adjacent herb- & young pine-covered slopes in front of the lodge, got into my banding trap placed on a 6 ft. high feeding tray by a willow clump at the stream bank. They were given nos. 47-81429 (?) & 47-81430 (?). The ?'s head was bleeding when I found her, but she seemed to be vigorous & both held me for some time after their release. Probably have a nest nearby. There is another (? at least) which has an extremely unusual nest location on the opposite side of the lodge. This ? is sitting (presumably on eggs) on an old robin's nest placed on the big rafter extending under the eaves at the rear of the sloping roof of the 3 story building. The site is fully 30 ft. above the bare ground of the parking lot below it ! The incubating bird can be seen easily from a window on the stairway landing just below the nest ; but when anyone peers out of the window, she flies off & swoops to the ground for a diversionary display. Later she scolds from a clump of red firs 50 ft. away. June 29 "Ice Lakes", 6880 ft., 3 1/2 mi. W, 1 mi. S Donner Pass, Placer Co., Calif. - Numerous in partly snow-blanketed forest around the lakes & small meadows. 1 Nest with 4 eggs found in dirt bank of small, wood debris-lettered stream.
