Control grid i nothing
Again we caught a Physoglossum on the control
grid, but see on - this are very thin so
there except very morning. On the tracked grid, I
can see a Skate trap she near one.
It was not so windy tonight as last so we
much more pleasant cooking eating dinner.
May 1
Got up 0545 & had breakfast. It was still
calm so if wind effects trapping results we
should have a much bigger catch today than
the previous two. We then picked up both grids.
Catch (all receptors):
tracked grid - D. varicini -3
P. hani cillatus -1
P. longiambis -1 + 1 Ute
Control grid = D. varicini -3
So there was a decrease in captures rather than an
increase & no unwanted cars were taken.
As we were carrying the traps off the control
grid, Kristin Berry arrived to help us carry the
traps back to Chime Lake. We talked to her
earlier, finished packing up the tents &
broke camp. We left for home at 1045. It was a
very warm day on the desert. Saw 35K which still
near Wescs. Arrived home ~ 1740.
