Barks 1957 Journal 42. July 11 .8 mi S Kaiser Pass, 8800 ft, Fresno Co., Calif. Tales and burrows of small mammals. No sign of reptile of any sort. Back to camp at 10. Put up my birds, had lunch, broke camp, and headed home. New birds today: Velsie Warbler Pileolated Warbler Mt. Junail (young 1 or 2 days old) Green-tailed Towhee Olive-sided Flycatcher. Found the nest of a Western Tanager. Wednesday, near the summit, saw 2 Band-tailed Pigeon. Hummingbirds are thick here, lots of chasing. Could not shoot nor identify them. I believe that the Solitary Vireo reported earlier was an error. Both Cassin Finch + Western Tanager have been making nests very similar to the Vireo ones. Drove to the summit to take some pictures. Saw Golden-mantled Ground Squirrel at top. As I left, it was -thundering, and clouding up. It is just 250 mi. from the summit to Berkeley (MV2) July 14+6 MV2 - Spent parts of these three days putting up the birds brought back from Harts Pass once. They are not in very good shape, most being soft + beginning to slip on the belly. All these birds are fat. Many or all seem a little emaciated from drying out on feet.
