D.F. Hoffmeister 1938 Strawberry Canyon, Berkeley, Alameda Co., Calif. morning. Obtained an excellent view of a red-tailed hawk which was soaring low north of the stadium. Saw at least 2 Citharus beckeyi out yet at the plot above the Veterinary Science Bldg. Saw Coast bush-tits foraging in large flocks, only 1 Juncos, but many audubm warblers among eucalypti. Although numerous Microtus runs were followed, only a few showed fresh workings, although old nests filled with ungerminated seeds were evident in many cases. I particularly noticed that the mouths of underground burrows of Microtus and Perognathus of last year, or earlier this year, has sprouts of green grass growing from them, whereas much of the surrounding ground didn't. Apparently seeds had been carried or fallen here and found loose dirt and enough moisture to germminate. On a slope covered with Artemesia, we found 3 scats apparently of Neotoma albi they were not exactly characteristics of this genius. These were not found in territory one would expect to find Neotoma in. They were 9 mm x 4mm. & rather oblong O and black. Nov. 19. Visited traps with Fred Dale. There were 9 caught, some of which had been badly eaten. I put up 1 Reithro, 1 Peromyscus truei + maniculatus, 1 Perognathus
