Hemlock" Bluff 1 - 10; 10 a. in. 
In the cave at the Hemlock Bluffs Art 
Rudy and I found a number of junco 
tracks. They were clearly defined in 
the sand and as far as I could tell they 
had never walked. Juncoes were quite 
common. They always seem to feed around 
such sheltered place. Also they got 
sand here probably. They were as big as 
English sparrows tracks. 
. A number of juncoes were feeding in the 
weeds in a cornfield. They flew in the 
brush when we came and hopped along be¬ 
fore us going through brushpiles like 
mice. Theyvere ouite tame.

tracks. They did not have the snow 
shoes yet and in consequence were v/ell 
definea in the fine sand. They probably 
came there to get sand to help their 
digestions. The tracks were quite thick. 
They were about the size of Bantam track.

taken a ruffed grouse from its roos^and 
carried it to a dead arching ironwood and 
there eaten it. The owl had spent the 
next day sitting in-w larger tree near 
where it had the grouse as was testified 
by the numerous droppings. The bird had 
been killed two nights ago probably as
