Bailey - Arizona, California, New Mexico, May 1907 - August 1907

About the Project

To what lengths would you go for your research? Naturalist Vernon Orlando Bailey regularly traveled through the American Southwest at the height of summer to collect and observe the animals and plants there. Bailey regularly worked on foot or horseback, camping near the location he was studying and making do with what was on hand. Specimens from his many expeditions as part of the Bureau of Biological Survey can be found in the National Museum of Natural History's mammal and birds collections. Join other volunteers in transcribing his summer 1907 field journal to make this collector's personal accounts more accessible to researchers and scholars today.
