Mustela frenata
April 13 4 mi. NW San Bernardino, San Bernardino Co., Caly.
Saw an adult long-tailed weasel slowly run
across Highland Avenue (a main thoroughfare)
just east of Mount Vernon Avenue in the above
city at about 9 a.m., on a bright, sunny morning.
It ran from a weedy grape vineyard across the
road and stopped at the edge of a cultivated,
bare field. It held its head high and looked
about as I drove by in the car and remained
this way until I could no longer see it. It appeared
especially bold to me.
