R.E. Johnson 1968 Nov. 3 Sageshen Cr., Calif. to Peavine Mtn., Nevada, + Return (cont.) been caught in the net as yet. As soon as we reached the edge of the hole all the birds flew out. They were all perched on the sides of the shaft above the net. None were caught & none flew up from below the net. The birds returned to the hole after we again left but they did not go below the net. We saw the flock flying 100 yds west of the hole several times as it flew from place to place around the shaft, landing here & there to feed & then returning near the shaft. Finally at perhaps 5 PM we saw the flock leave the area flying west. It was not seen again. At 5:45 PM (now dark) we removed the net & drove away. All the birds seen closely were of the tephrocotis head pattern (not littoralis) & none were dark like L.t. atrata. These birds could have been L.t. lawsoni, wallowa, or tephrocotis. We explored a mine dump downhill to the NW & found that the shaft there had was caved in & completely closed to entry. No birds could roost there. Nov. 4.
