Mr. Lamb will take care of description of country and daily report of new birds seen. I will list the birds that I see and he does not see however. I set 35 mouse & rat traps in a gully running up in a canyon. The traps are set along the South rim + side, in a distance of 200 or 300 yds. The steel set it at a point where trails come together tied to a fence. The weather is threatening rain.
