R.E.Johnson 1967 Journal April 8 Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History, Santa Barbara, Calif. Attending 38th Annual Meeting of the Cooper Ornithological Society, April 6-9 based at the Museum. April 6-7 were rainy, but today is clearing. Attended all papers until 3:40 PM today when my "sit-down" was to numb to continue, thus a short bird walk along the creek SW of the museum. The Following species were observed in the oak-sycamore, etc woodland adjacent the creek: Scrub Jay Western Flycatcher - Flycatch within oak tree (short flights, i.e. 3ft). Had been heard singing in the tree tops in the morning (9AM) but they are silent now. Anna Hummingbird Warbling Vireo - Forages in foliage layer of Quercus agrifolia. Sings while foraging. Audubon Warbler Western Mockingbird Black-headed Grosbeak Brown Towhee Rufous-sided Towhee - a female was watched following at 10ft distance a male for 10 minutes as the male moved slowly (hopping & short flights) while feeding through the under growth beneath the trees. Later a male sang (bzzzz; bzzzz; -) at a rate of 12+ "songs" per minute from the top of a 40 ft Live Oak. 87
