House Wren? R J Mtn Sep 9-10:10 a.m. I heard scolding and a couple minutes later collected on a S facing slope. Vegetation consists of widely spaced Ceanothus cuneatus bushes with a few Scabiosa [illegible] bushes, A couple of dwarfed Gonyt [illegible] Ceanothus interreg and several struggling Jeffrey Pines are the only trees. The Base between plants consist wholly of broken up Serpentine no soil present. This bird had been foraging in C. cuneatus just before being collected. Another flew from a m[?] shrub when I fired.
