July 11
Twin Buttes, Sherman Co., Wash.
Returning to camp I noted
2 [illegible], hummingbirds which
I think were Rufus
Hummingbirds but I am
not certain.
July 12
In the afternoon Mr.
Johnson and myself
went to Cayuse meadows
located 3 mi N E of Camp.
I assisted him in setting
out 7 sets of gopher traps on
the slope bordering
the east end of the meadow.
The soil here was rather
sandy. Grass grew abundantly
on the slope which seemed
to have been burnt over
more recently than the
area described above since
burnt stems were found.
A junco nest containing
3 eggs was found on a
small meadow on the slope.
The nest was, on the ground;
it was sheltered on 3 sides
by a small shrub. The nest
was about 2 inches in diameter
