Journal 163 Sep 27 3 min N Willow Creek, 700 ft, Humboldt Co., Calif. There is also Salal and Manzanita (species not determined) as ground cover in this forest, with Oregon Grape (Berberis aquifolium) occasionally showing. (A little further up the slope it looked as if the manzanita with several cleanthus may form a quite definite chaparral on the south slope at the 2600 ft, elevation.) In this habitat I have seen Juncoes, Oven-tits, Pileated Warblers, Swainson Thrushes and Blue-tailed Skink. Dropping down to Maple Camp Spring (2200 ft) on the N side of the ridge I collected a Garter Snake, and at the spring collected a Steller Jay and heard chipmunks but didn't try to get any. The forest here again fits my Pure Douglas Fir Forest, with a few mapled (A. macrophyllum) about the spring area. I looked for amphibians, found 1 adult and 6 larval Cychotriton in the gravel under the moss covered rocks. This Maple Camp Spring must be the only water for quite a distance, for since I have been here (2 to 3 p.m.) Chestnut-backed Chickadees, Steller Jays, Swainson Thrushes, Empidonax Flycatchers and Red-breasted Nuthatches have all come to drink or bathe here. Also the only chipmunks I have heard in the forest have been here. This stream is bordered
