Dullon 1949 Turdus migratorius -2- Aug 25 Coyote Peak, 3100 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif. species involved. Aug 26 French Camp, 3100 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif. - At least 2 birds, one spotted breasted bird with a long tail, and one adult, were feeding on the ground this morning while we were breaking camp. Aug 29 Willow Creek, 400 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif. - At least one speckle-breasted young with long tail and 2 or 3 birds in adult plumage seen in the Brush Bottom (see journal p. 165) area. Sept 7 Red Mtn, 5300 ft., 14 mi S Hayfork, Trinity Co., Calif. - One bird was heard in the White Fir forest in camp while I was still in bed this morning. The persistent "churching" of this bird finally resulted in its being collected. It was an immature bird. Summary Northwest Coast Transect, Calif. - Robins were most abundant at Big Lagoon, but were also encountered commonly at Willow Creek. At both the high ridge localities where water was scarce (French Camp and Red Mtn) robins were definitely scarce, being encountered only not more than 2 occasions at each camp.
