Banjo 1960 Journal 33. Oct.25 E Side Isla Cerralvo, Baja Calif., Mexico Verdin Rock Wren Mockingbird Ash Throated Flycatcher White-Winged Dove (?) Ground Dove Epidornax sp. Hummingbird sp. Broke picked up a skeleton of a [Buted?] and found antler shel. (nail?) which I'll get tomorrow. Oct.26 Had 1 more Peromyscus when I checked traps at dawn. Worked up the arroyo again, got a long way farther up than yesterday. In patches along the arroyo the vegetation is rather thick, forming woodland-type formation, principally Bursera (spelling?) and Pachycormus. There are several plants in flower, used by bees & humming- birds. Several places along the arroyo the ground looks damp, but we haven't found any open water. In late afternoon set all traps in a large arroyo to the S off the main one. Bird sees: Raven Brown Pelican Osprey Black Throated Sparrow Turkey Vulture White-Crowned Sparrow Sparrow Hawk Blue Gray Gnatcatcher Red-Tailed Hawk Gila Woodpecker Ash-Throated Flycatcher Cactus Woodpecker Mockingbird Rock Wren Loggerhead Shrike Ground Dove White-Winged Dove
