Guan 1928 Alamo River 50 ft. 20 mi. S.W. of Pilot Knob. Lower Calif, Mex. Jan 19, 1928 Night. There was a pair of them calling back & forth with their coco-co- coco- and a low chuckling somewhat like a rat gnawing dry leaves. The woodrats were prowling and gnawing all thru our camp trying to get in the grub. I saw a yellow throx the only bird which Mrs. Samt did not see today. He has the list of the others. The first steel set is set 20 yds from road near willows & cottonwoods cr baited with corn. The second is baited with apronmyssus and a towheel and is set by a trail in flat sandy silty country which has been cleared and is now overgrown with low brush.
