Cooper, 1936
San Andreas, Calaveras Co., Calif.
April 25
For list of the birds seen, refer to
the census sheet of the aforementioned
locality & for the above date.
Cistellus b. beebeji was the only
mammal seen.
Our plans for census taking, is in
brief as follows: one census (each person
taking a separate census over a separate
area) south of town - where more
Calif. jays would perhaps be found;
one in the vicinity of San Andreas-
so that we could check on those
hunters who were too lazy to leave
their back yards; one census north
of town approaching or in the
lower Transition Zone - where
more Stellar jays might be found.
The first census has been briefly
described. The second census covered
about the same distance as the
first (2 mi.) and, was 1/hrs. 10 min. in
duration and took place about 10 mi.
N.E. of San Andreas and 2 mi. W of
Mountain Ranch.
Here the Transition influence was well
indicated by sugar & yellow pines. They
were mixed with Digger pines and were.
