Child 1958 3 July Pithocea River (16 miles SE Cape Sabine, Clarke Birds in the tussock area seem likely is by far the most offensive plant habitat of the area. There is very little sign of mouse activity here also. It appears to me that forage production may have one- thig to do with this as I believe tussocks to be less producers in comparison Carex aquatilis and E. augustifolius. The tussoks are much larger than at the bar camp with deeper depressions in between. The ground seems wetter and with more moss. Dryas assaden is more extensive on the tops of the hills as is Benens. There is lots of bare, rocky areas on the tops also. In the Felt-leaf willow and other shrubs birds are more abundant, White-crown and Tree Sparrows, Redpolls, and occasionally Yellow Wagtails. Three Pipits were seen. 6 July Merle and I walked 5-7 miles up the north fork of the Pithocea to a cliff which had a Rough-leg Hawk nest on it after Cheryl this 5 traps which had 1 Meistus, oecanum, and 1 Longspur in it. Along the way we found a Shrike's nest, saw several broods of Tawny- and collected a Yellowlegs, Bicknell's Sandpiper, Pale-bellied, Wabler, and saw again of Robins. Quite a list of new species for the Pithocea
