1926
Clayon Canyon, 3200 ft. E. base San Pedro Martis
Lower California, Mexico.
June 3.
Mentured and in the same kind
of association. Two steel sets in the
near vicinity drew some jays but
by bad luck (or good luck for the
foxes) they did not happen to step
on the jims. Saw a couple of
juvenile I. excullatus nelsoni near
tthere also.
In the evening I caught a water
snake in the same place. It was
lying still among the rocks at the
very edge of the water and when
cought attempted to escape into
the water. A pair of Rana also
drew my attention. I were caught
also. They were a parent with a
young on its back. No matter how
fast the elder jumped, swam,
or was shaking the young Rana
would hold on for dear life with
its front feet buried in its
parents armpits.
Killed several pipistrelles in
the dusk and heard two Horned
owls + one Screech owls, but owing
to a broken Flashlight it was
impossible to find them.
