Bubo virginianus -1- Aug 25 French Camp 3/00 ft, Humboldt Co., Calif. I collected in the Fir Forest SE of Camp about 7:30 p. m. About 7 a-? I was heard calling from the forest N of camp, as Cogswell went up after her I moved down the road to the East. Apparently, she flew from her original position because soon I heard a male hooting (who-who-whew-whew-) and soon being answered by a nearly ? (who who-a-who who). I worked down through the forest to the vicinity of the Black Oak area (see Map Journal p.148). There I saw an bull fly onto an open limb of a large Douglas Fir. It hooted, giving the ?? call. After a couple of hoots I started answering him. He became quiet and after about 2 minutes flew to a tree still closer to me. The he was out of sight, I kept on hooting, and in a moment he dropped into the top of a low Incense Cedar. I collected him from there - raising #6 shot in a full face shot. During the evening the ? was heard continuously calling in the vicinity of camp. Then at 2:30 a.m. she could still be heard giving an occasional "who" on the ridge Ewest north of camp.
