- June 3 - There have been 3 & rufous Hummers around our tent several times today. I didn't know what they were after at first but I soon found out. They kept picking at the frayed ends of the cotton rope that supported the tent. We put out some bits of cotton and they soon found that and carried it off to help build their nests. - June 4 - Finished the beaver skin today and it stopped long enough for me to put up the two small beaver skins. Hasselborg found a nest of the rufous Hummer today. It was about 5 ft. up on the tip of a drooping fir bough and contained 2 eggs. The nest was very pretty decorated with lichens - June 5 - Hasselborg and Stephens started back to the lakes for a 4 days trip this morning. They western fly catchers are singing early and late around and a & shot yesterday was incubating.
