Green 1927 Las Palmas Canyon 200 ft West side of Laguna Salada 15 mi S, of N end Lomas, Calif. Mex. Oct. 30 1927 Caught one coyote today. See Mr. Lamb. 45 mouse traps caught four θ peromyscus, 3 θ perognathus, four Ο perognathus. Eleven in all. 879 Coyote θ 21 lbs. 1160-345-193-110 The same as in yesterdays notes. 880 Tanager? Ο 16.2 g. This bird was hopping from rock to rock in a manner which resembles that of a wren. I found that he had been wounded and one wing was held tight against its side. It had the use of only one wing. This was near the spring. 881 Coyote Ο 73. g 202-64-50-5 Caught under brush pile in very sandy soil. This trap had been in the burro for a day and half. I relaid my traps again to night and moved some to other locations with the same association as the traps had been in. I heard a horned owl tonight very close but was unable to see him. I also saw a costa hummingbird. I heard a cactus wren.
