236 Birds of San Pedro Martir. [ZOE 
Dryobates villosus hyloscopus. CABANIS’S WOUDPECKER. Not 
uncommon in the pines on San Pedro. Given as farrisiz in my 
notes in Mr. Bryant’s list. 
Dryobates scalaris lucasanus. St. LUCAS WOODPECKER. A 
specimen taken April 30 at San Telmo and others seen. I 
have frequently seen Dryodates in the cacti along the coast hills 
from San Fernando north, but owing to their extreme shyness 
have usually failed to take specimens. It is quite probable that 
the notes furnished Mr. Bryant regarding the finding of D. nwt- 
‘allit among the cacti of the coast belong to the present species, 
as I do not think I have ever seen nuftallii away from deciduous 
trees. 
Dryobates nuttallii. Nuvtaut's WoopPECKER. Common 
along all the timbered streams as high as 4000 feet, or the limit 
of the live oaks and sycamores. 
Melanerpes formicivorus bairdi. CALIFORNIA WOODPECKER. 
Well distributed through the pines on San Pedro, ad probably 
tesident; nowhere very plenty, but more common in the oak 
growth from Ensenada north. 
Colaptes cafer, RED-SHAFTED FLICKER. Rather common on 
San Pedro, descending to the lower valleys in winter. 
_ ~Phalenoptilus nuttallic californicus. CAt1tORNIA POOR-WILL. 
Poor-wills were very abundant in the lower valleys in late April 
of the past year, but none were heard above 4500 feet until May 
8, when one was heard at our camp at 7000 feet. They were 
heard at 8500 feet May 25, and one taken at the western edge 
of the mountain on May 28 was evidently nesting. ‘They were 
much oftener heard than seen, as they are not much on the wing. 
_ Chordeiles texensis. Texas Nicwr-Hawx. Quite common — 
in the lower valleys, especially about the water holes; one seen 
as high as La Grulla—8200 feet. ; 
Cypseloides niger. Buack Swirr. At San Telmo a pair of 
these swifts appeared about camp several times during the fore- 
_ noon of April 30th, and one was shot by a member of the party; 
not noticed again. .
