18 R.E. Johnson 1966 Journal Spar Lake, 3300 FT, Lincoln Co., Montana (cont.) of the aforementioned Clark's Nutcracker when it was skinned. A pair of Spotted Sandpipers were seen [illegible] in the evening on the lake shore near the campground. In the evening Ward & Dave Conard drove up to snap traps along the Spar Peak Trail. The remaining 3 of us drove up that way a little later and saw a Pine Martin disappear into the deep forest. While watching this, we saw & captured a shrew (Microorex hoyi) that was running across the road. We kept him alive for several hours by feeding him moths, etc., which he ate greedily. Returning to camp along the road we noticed that Varied Thrush's were commonly flushed from the roadside. They had been high in the trees & impossible to see all day. June 18 Up early. Winter Wren, Varied Thrush, & Hammond Flycatchers sing around camp as usual. Two Zapus princeps were caught in snap traps near camp & set the night before by Conard. Conard & Ward went to collect their traps from the Spar Lake Trail. Moore, Ames, & I drove to the same location approx but fanned out to collect birds. Ames revisited the burn and collected a Red-breasted Nuthatch & Golden-crowned Kinglet, among others. Moore came up with the grand prize, a Pygmy Owl. I hiked up the Little Spar Lake
