Abstract:

During the late spring and early summer of 1903 a small party, including the writer, tramped with pack animals from Sonora to Lake Tahoe, thus passing through the central heavily timbered portion of the Sierra Nevada mountains. Notes were made on the birds seen throughout the trip and the opportunities for such study proved to be far richer than had been expected. In the following notes I shall venture a few observations on nine species of land birds only, namely, the plumed partridge, Wright flycatcher, white-crowned sparrow, Lincoln sparrow, thick-billed sparrow, tree swallow, phainopepla, pileolated warbler, and mountain chickadee.
