51 Journal R.E. Johnson 1966 West Fork Yaak River, 5000 ft., Lincoln Co., Montana (cont.) July 8 Ward, Dave Conrad & I drove to Hawkins Lakes to check the Wolverine traps (all empty), then Ward went Fishing in the middle lake using lures (no bites), Dave went after Conys, and I swung east into a cirque (1st cirque east of the middle lake. It drains into the lower lake). The cirque was filled with boulders, with timber upon slope and cliffs above. Snow patches occur at the base of the cliffs and also fringe the top. Also a good stand of timber occurs at the top. I collected 3 Pine Siskins in a larch tree at the lower edge of the boulders. Also heard in this Forest were: Chipping Sparrow, Golden-crowned Kinglet, Audubon Warbler, & Ruby-crowned Kinglet. A Chipping Sparrow was collected from a small clump of Larch trees at the base of the cliffs. Its song was an ascending (or sometimes undulating) trill rather than the usual constant trill. These birds are listed in the catalogue as "1 mile E of North- west PK, 7000 ft." and were prepared by W.C. Russell. I then hiked to the ridge (south up the cliffs) & west to a point above the middle lake. Here I collected a Varied Thrush, Clarke Nutcracker, & a Warbler (sp?). A Hermit Thrush & Rufous Hummingbird (o?) were also seen.
