Cogswell 1950 Melospiza lincolnii 3 July 31 near Sugar Bowl Lodge [see p.1] - pair in the territory near the stream (not the same one as July 3 NEST) now have young either in or out of the nest, judging by their carrying of caterpillars & constant scolding when we stay nearby. Aug. 1 E. end L. Van Norden, 6760 ft., Placer Co., Calif. - singing (a.m. & p.m.) from willow thickets over the masses of water plants in the still slightly flooded inlet creek bed just above lake shore proper. Aug. 5 near Sugar Bowl Lodge [see above] - only 1 still singing & that not very often. Last heard on Aug. 8, Aug. 11,14,16 - single birds seen in breeding areas. + 1 glimpsed (near Mary L.) on Aug. 25. May still have been present in full breeding numbers & young, but too secretive as usual to be found when I was afield, with 8 to 15 Audubon campers accompanying me.
