Hullon 1949 Journal -131- Aug 15 Big Lagoon Humboldt Co., Calif. collected. - Going back away - I saw 2 Reddy Ducks on the open water just S of the juncture of Cross Channel with the old mouth - an Oared Grebe with mystical "ears" in the Scipus just W of the Buddies' location - and an adult Piled-billed Grebe further out in the Old Mouth but near the Wedge. About 50-75 Pintails and nearly the same number of Mallards were milling around over head most of the day. The shot total was in company with another blue winged bird and a Green-winged Teal when collected. After taking the Grebe I followed a well defined and much used deer trail back to the channel of Maple Creek - crossed the creek and returned to camp. Aug 16 same locality - Spent the entire day skinning yesterday catch. It was clear from dawn until now - 5:57pm - at least. Aug 17 same locality - Left camp early this morning to work the marsh area at the S end of the Lagoon. Rough-winged Swallows and Barn Swallows were feeding over the log pond and about 15-20 Brewer
