D.F Hoffmister 1939 Itinerary July 2 Columbia R., 300 ft., at mouth of Deschutes R., Wasco Co., Ore. A Sylvilagus nuttallii. Later I collected a Sceloporus. By dusk, it had clouded over and bats were not as abundant as on previous nights and none were shot. July 3 Visited the traps this morning. It had drizzled considerably during the night and the vegetation and ground was wet. I only had 2 sets of gopher traps out and a single one, as I had collected one set last night. These had 2 Thomomys talpoides (1♂, 1♀); of the 24 Museum special traps (1 being lost), I had 4 Reithrodonmys megalotis (3♂, 1♀) and 1 Rattus norvegicus ♀. These were the traps set in Sherman County. Also collected a Brewer Blackbird. On the Wasco County side of the river, the 9 traps had 3 Reithrodonmys megalotis ♂♂. I left 3 gopher traps set across the river from camp, and this afternoon, Johnson and Chattin visited them and brought back 2 Thomomys talpoides (1♂, 1♀). They continued about 15 miles up the Columbia river to the mouth of the John Day River to reset gopher traps and museum special traps.
