Banks 1959 Journal 33. June 29 Macaulay Rd, 14 mi N Courtenay, Vancouver Isld, B.C., which seemed quite abundant throughout this territory. Continued on the road till it was no longer got a road, then on to on. This is one of Mr. Pease's favorite areas. Back in here there is a large swamp, here Pease often finds Eastern Kingbird, Wood Quail, and Bitterns, but me saw none of these. Several Beaver houses here. Birds seen: Redwing Yellow Warbler Orange-crested Warbler Yellowthroat Robin Olive-backed Thrush Flicker Downy Woodpecker Cedar Waxwing White-crowned Sparrow Solitary Vireo Red-eyed Vireo Belted Kingfisher Tree Swallow Violet-green Swallow Alder Flycatcher Black Swift Nighthawk Turkey Vulture Anderson Warbler Continued on the road to the farm of the Krentziger's. They have a son at U.C., Berkeley. There is a small lake on the farm, but I saw nothing on it. The road soon becomes a public road again, & joins the highway as Endall Rd, several miles S of Macaulay Rd. Returned to camp, shined till dark, picked Salamanders, wrote snake labels, & then these notes.
