Hullon 1949 Spinus pinus -1- Sept 1 1 mi WSW Brannan Mtn, 3500 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif. 1 bird of about a dozen collected from a flock feeding in the top of a Douglas Fir. This bird was in a fir cone at the time it was clipped. This tree was on the edge of Johnson Prairie, a 10-2 acre grassy opening surrounded by Douglas Fir, Incense Cedar forest with some Pinyon Oak and Ponderosa Pine scattered around. Summary Northwest Coast Transect, Calif. - Pinos siskins were fairly abundant in the Big Lagoon area, both in the Maple Creek area of Sitka Spruce and in the Douglas Fir- Redwood forest at 1700 ft on the ridge E of the lagoon. At French Camp they were less frequently encountered; and at Willow Creek they were seen only so, the Brannan Mtn area. At Red Mtn they were still more infrequently encountered, in fact I only saw two in this area of White Fir- Jeffrey Pine.
