Online Full Text

On October 18, 1900, Mr. Wm. L. Atkinson of this place collected a fine specimen of the Pigeon Hawk (Falco columbaris) just north of Santa Clara. The bird is a male in adult plumage, and was shot from a fence bordering a seed field, from which the hawk doubtless secured its prey in the shape of various sparrows which frequent the field.
