30 Journal R.E. Johnson 1A68 March 20 50 Lassen Co., Calif. to Bodie, Mono Co., Calif. (cont.) I drove north to Hallelujah Jct & then west on Calif. 70 just over Beckworth Pass & took a dirt road to the left (south) past the Rest stop area until I located a mine in a white rock outcrop west of this road. It has a wire fence around it to keep people from falling in. It is a straight vertical shaft 30+ ft deep with water at the bottom. The opening is small (4x6 Ft. max.) in solid, white quartz rock. A sage bush over hanging one edge & partly covers the hole. Rosy Finches could conceivably use it, but I didn't want to wait all day to see. This is the hole a lady in Chilcoot mentioned to me last week. She had never noticed birds there, however. I drove back to Reno & got ice to keep the birds cool, then south toward Carson City. Starlings are everywhere & occasional Sparrow Hawks are perched on phone lines. A Golden Eagle sat on a high rock outcrop on a hill south of Lakeview Summit. A few miles north of Topaz Lake a Scrub Jay was seen in a Juniper Tree. At 3PM a Loggerhead Shrike was collected from a phone line above sagebrush 2 miles north of Topaz Lake on US 395. A mile north of Topaz Lake a W.C Sparrow was collected from a flock of 10+ and Oregon Junco were seen - all in sagebrush.
