H.T. Grinnell - 1915.
Yosemite, Calif.
Containing many seeds of the
now ripened coffee berry
(Rhamnus)
Birds of interest seen were:
four Band-tailed Pigeons, flying
over the golden-oak talus
slope; a flock of about
twenty-five Violet-green
Swallows, twittering as they
circled high over the
meadows; and four White-
throated Swifts, darting
about high over the talus slope.
It has been suggested
to us that a young mammal,
when brought up by hand is
more apt to thrive upon
"Eagle Brand" condensed milk
than upon the unsweetened
condensed milk or upon cow's
milk; so we are trying the first-
named upon the Flying
Squirrel. He takes it very
easily and rouses instantly
when squeaked at, either by
day or night, altho he is
listless at night,
