Here, H. 1980 2 June (cont.) over open grassland as we turned N onto Hwy 5 from Hwy/52 from Los Banos. Arrived in Berkeley at 2000 h. 4 June Canal Hollow Rd., Alameda & San Joaquin Counties, California left Berkeley at #1700 w/5 students on a Zoology 107 trip. On Mines & Tesla Roads saw various birds, Sperophilus beecheyi, and 1 dead Pituophis (not especially fresh). Saw 2 more Pituophis on Canal Hollow Rd., 1 fairly fresh and one not. At Castle Rock on the Corrally Ranch we saw owls, Antrozous pallidus, a Scaphiopus hammondi, and a Bufo boreas. Both toads were active on the surface in dry grass. No live snakes. It was quite cold and windy, and we had a good shower (a surprise to longtime residents) in Berkeley today. Got home at 1 AM! We did see at least 1 Urocyon (possibly 2) cross the road on our way into Livermore. 6 June Canal Hollow Rd., Alameda & San Joaquin Cos., California Everything same as two nights ago, except no carnivores, only one snake (an AOR Hypsiglena.)
