Tom 7 Lamache Creek, 630 ft; Fresno Co., Calif. Catching Two Koenig's Bats, one quite large and the other smaller. I've yet to examine them but will return to the university with them alive. March 25 5 a.m. N. Castle Butte, Kern Co., Calif. I left my home in Northridge at 6:00 A.M. I stopped for ice at Reseda Blvd and Devonshire ST, 754 for 25 lbs. Driving north and east on highway 14, I arrived in Mojave at 7:30 - very good freeway and no traffic. Arrived in California City park at 7:45 to meet my party. On the way out the desert was very lush. Hills south of Mojave were covered with yellow flowers. Joshua tree was coming into bloom. There were some sycamores in shallow puddles along the highway. At the city park in California City they have an artificial pond about 100 x 70 x 43, with a 30 x 30 x 2 island in the middle. There are tall trees, some shrubs and clumps of pampas grass on the island. I saw a yellowthroat in this last plant, and a fall breeding male Audubon warbler in some trees around the parking lot. There was a pair of Garganey teal on the lake, plus domestic and killdeer. Stocks. It was a cool morning, warmer in the San Fernando Valley, colder in the Antelope Valley. The sky was blue and the sun felt warm at California City, despite the fact that the temperature was only 67 o F at noon. By 4:00 PM The wind had started blowing at 20-30 mph and
