I could hear young cheeping at #11. At 10:30 I arrived at #7 with Dom Salemii from the Willow Creek Ranch. I collected n, d, and dzn in that order as they came to the nest. Then we nailed cloth over the entrance and cut the tree down and sawed out the section with the nest. I chloroformened the young and opened the nest through the top. There were 5 young in it, obviously not ready to leave, but well feathered. Eggs had hatched in this nest 24 days ago; perhaps the growth of the young was retarded, or perhaps these hatched a few days later. At any rate, on June 8 this nest had 6 eggs and 2 newly hatched young; It is perhaps sig- nificant that 5 young, the same number as the usual clutch, is all that hatched or survived.
