Aug 24 French Camp, 3100 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif.
Animal has the same gray head, a greenish
gray back and a green-yellow under surface
Aug 27 3 1/2 mi. N.E. Willow Creek, 2400 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif.-
1 individual taken in the leaf litter along-
side a fallen Chinquapin. The temperature
of the animal's immediate environment is
70 F. The ground is covered with
several inches of Chinquapin, Madrone and
Tan Oak leaves, those being the trees in
this area. Evergreen Huckleberry, Poison Oak
and small Tan Oaks from the ground cover.
Nearest water is probably Maple Spring,
1/2 mile E. of here. Another, yellow animal
with a stubby tail was shot about 1/2 mile
further west along Waterman Ridge. This
animal's environment is much the same as
the last, only Salal and Bracken Fern
have replaced the other two plants for ground
cover. There is some direct sun in this
location, and it is warm (3:30 p.m.).
Still a third was shot off a fallen log and rather
badly messed up, in the Tan Oak part of
the Douglas Fir forest, but within less
than 100 yards of the edge of a Black Oak
forest.
Sept 10 Col Mtn., 5300 ft., 4 mi. S Hayfork, Trinity Co., Calif.
I collected (7:350 p.m.) under a Brewer Oak.
