Banks 1959 Spinus pinus June 15 Innis, Shore Acres, Coos Co., Oregon - obtained one specimen in the clear-cut, burned, brushy area here, ROB 540. It was feeding on a dandelion-like plant. This is the only one of this species I have seen been so far. This bird turned out to be a B, very fat, with testes 6x4mm. It's crop was very full of seeds, mostly of the plant he was feeding on when shot, but some larger things also. July 2 White Pass, brook, Croatan Co., Wash - obtained one dupair in a jump of D. Fins. The birds seem quite abundant here.
