Greene, H. 1980 24 May (cont.) a rattler at Zirk's boulders, but Rich Ostfeld found a very reddish adult Pituophis melanoleucus crawling in grass at the base of the hill. It was calm until I repeatedly teased it w/ a finger, finally hissing and striking a few imes. Next we marched back to the 4th (farthest) lagoon and saw 3 clemmys macrostata basking on the same tree limb as yesterday. Also found 2 Thamophis couchi, from one of which I palpated a partly digested three spined stickle back fish and many small fish (?)
