- Pine Grosbeak.
Monashee Pass, B.C. [British Columbia] 4000' June 23/37 [1937]
This morning at 7:30 AM a pair
of these birds came to a low tree
near camp. Both were taken + proved
to be a breeding pair - female
laying. They were of identical
plumage but the male is a
few mm. [millimetres] the larger.
An hour later a full plumaged
breeding [male symbol] came + was shot.
At 1 o'clock Mr [Kenneth] Racey shot an
ad [adult] [male symbol] + [female symbol] that flew out of an
abandoned shack. They were
apparently attracted to the camp +
to the shack by salty deposits.
The second [male symbol] taken had been
eating alder buds. When travelling
together they utter a low call like
that of the western Tanager.
