Vireo solitarius
-1-
Aug 27 3 1/2 mi. N Willow Creek, 2000ft., Humboldt Co. Calif.
One foraging in mixed Golden-cup Oak
Black Oak forest on the S slope of Walman
Ridge. This bird avoided foraging in the
Live oak, apparently preferring the deciduous
Black Oak.
Aug 29 Willow Creek, 400ft., Humboldt Co. Calif.
I heard in the alders along the foot of tho hill W of the Trinity River, north of town.
The same bird as others, was heard later
near the river, in a Bay-English Walnut
open woodland.
Sept 7 Red Mtn., 5300ft., 14mi S Hayfork, Trinity Co. Calif.
I was heard twice yesterday near the spring at camp in typical Fir-Pine-Cedar Open Forest (see Journal p. 180) and today about noon one was calling in the same type of forest just over the E slope on the saddle north of Red Mtn.
Summary Northwest Coast Transect, Calif. - These vireos were recorded from all four camps. At Big Lagoon they were birds of the alders and willows along Maple Creek; at French Camp they were in Tan Oak forest, in Black Oak forest and deciduous stream bottom at Willow Creek. Only at Red Mtn were they encountered in conifer forests.
