J. G. Hall 1954 Creek 31 May Indian Canyon, 7400ft, White Mts, Esmeralda Co, Nevada No bobcat in trap. Checked mouse traps (29 in all) & caught 16 Peromyscus m. sonoriensis, 2 Microtus montanus and 1 m. longicauda which Ward calls m. mordax. Started hunting a little after 6 in the Willow "swamp" again and found nest of spotted tow- hee in grass at base of Sagebrush about 40' from edge of swamp. It had three eggs, spotted i reddish brown. House wrens again singing loud- ly and I located nest of one with a hole in a willow about 15' above ground. Noticed an adult woodrat, m. lepida in debris of fallen willow not far away from wren's nest. Frank says my Downy is a hairy. We both Got shots at it & missed. Shot a Steller's Jay. They're very noisy here cf. to Trail Canyon. Black-headed grosbeaks singing several times from top of willow near swamp. Cowbird and cedar waxwing each pas- sed through as did a J W Tan- ager. Flicker nest located by Frank yesterday has young about ready to fly, judging by noise they make.
