Culbreath 1942 Jan 20. J. Had Mt. 4mi N Med River Rock, El 3100, Trinity Co. Calif and under logs, tends fans in spring sup areas, open glades along a stream, in the manzanita and around the sedge of a small running spring. This morning I observed both a golden eagle and a Cooper hawk soaring directly above the canyon bottom in the high wind. The eagle circled at a constant elevation of a maximum 3000 feet. During its flight it was giving a loud squawking call most of the time. The Cooper hawk came in over me at about 3000 feet but quickly gained altitude with the winds. It would circle upward and then dive from an elevation of 4 to 5 tousand feet repeatedly. These actions were observed for about 15 minutes, and then he flew out of my sight to the north. Mr Riley and a man at the Med River store had reported rabbits in this area around camp, but so far we have not seen a single animal. Both the jackrabbits, and cottontails are reported but they both remain to be collected yet. Evidently these rabbits were represented here in good numbers a short time ago but now they are in the low part of the population cycle.
