LIDICKER 1967 Point Reyes Trip with Clinton H. Conaway & S. B. Benson May 27 Conaway & I left Berkeley about 0935, crossed Golden Gate Bridge & took road to Pt. Bonita, through Forts Baker & Barry. The large valley which the road follows looks in very good shape, a likely place to trip for Nematrichaea, Sorex, & Zapus. Next we investigated the Tern. Valley (Elk Valley) Rd. to the North. It is pretty well thick up & overgrown so far as we could go; we ran into private roads before we could get a furr Ft. Cronkhite. The we briefly visited Muir Woods, had lunch in Bolinas, & then continued on to Duncans. We checked into the Duncan Motel (~3/4 mi. S Dunmore) at 4/12 at night for the 2 yrs. Then we explored out Pt. Reyes to the Lighthouse, went to Drakes Beach, & returned to Benson's place at 1645. Benson is 1 mi. by rd. S. of Duncans (1 mi. SE Inverness). The 3 of us set ~ 40 song traps in the dense forest on Benson's property, especially setting for shrews in the fern clumps, under rotten logs etc. Then we went to search new top. A ridge where road crosses ridge on way to Pt. Reyes (2 mi. W, 0.8 mi. N Duncans, 300 ft.). Here we set about 50 Muss. & jones & 20 Longworth line traps. Then we drove out the new Park Rd. to "Pt. Reyes Beach Work"

LIDICKER 1967 May 27 cont. I walked NE about 1/4 mi. & set 15 Min. spr. in a small s along a creek w/a few ltrngs. close the beach. Back at Benson's we set 10 Longwrl's in the woods & around a wood pile. # Clint & I ran a few of the traps out earlier, & had 1 Enutomus alleni in a trap set by Benson at the end & a well rotted log (trap set for s others). This chipmunk appears to be tolerably very inconspicuous & is not vocal as is typical of chipmunks. It was a ? in reproductive condition. Had dinner with Benson's before retiring to our motel. May 28 Had lunch at Pt. Reyes Station, then returned to Benson's about 10:15 & checked traps thru the camp. Quite a few Phronygenus minimulatus middles, many traps were strong, & many of the live traps were tom open - apparently by raccoons. Benson saw another chipmunk investigating one of his traps. The we went to our traps near the beach (6 mi. NE Pt. Reyes). Here we had 1 Zapus trivortatus, 1 Microtus, & 1 Phronygenus minimulatus. At our main trapping area in th woods along the ridge we had quite a few Microtus, 1 Zapus, 1 Sorex vagrans, 2 Sorex townshndgei (including a jwr. taken in a live trap). Conway filled the sirens. I found only 1 Zapus & 2 P. mini culata for shinning. Conway & I left Travers about 11:15.

L10, crx 1967 + 1968 (May 28 cont.) I drove N to Occidental where we had lunch in the Union Hotel. Then we continued to Monte Rio on the Russian R. We were impressed with the sharp transition between the groved Brush Edits (scattered clumps of trees in places), & the Douglas Fir forests which start just N of Ferndale. We returned to Occidental, then to Gueron, Sebastopol & on to US 101 at Cotati, & the Low. Arrived about 1645. Along the ridge above (cont.) Drake's Estero we found several active Aphiadontia burrows with cuttings etc. They were in the thick brushy vegetation on the N faces of the ridges. Inverness Peromyscus trip with Wayne C. Packer 6-7 September, 1968 5Sept. Left about noon in MV2 camper. We took the road from San Rafael via S.P. Taylor St. & K, looking for likely places to trap for Peromyscus maniulatus individuals. Stopped briefly at Benson's place (1 mi. SE Inverness) to cross the ridgeline for trapping & camping; spoke briefly to a neighbor. Proceeded N of Inverness to Sedge of Tomales Bay State Park, (turn off on rd. near coast after main road turns W to Pt Reyes, called something like "Camino del Mar"). At the

LIDICKEN 1968 6 Sept. cont. and of this road there is a fence & a trail to Shell Beach. From about 1415-1515 we saw X's Longworth live traps in the area. Explored N toward McClure's Beach including road into Tomale Bay St. Pt. Returned to main road to Pt. Royes. Set 20 long-walks on edge of streams: in thickets near old Blacksmith shop (3 mi. W, 1/2 mi. S Quivernois Marina C.). There was a willows kettle & barns. Microtus virginianus abundant in adjacent meadows & several individuals were seen. Returned to Berson's & set 45 Longworth's (~1645-1735) in the woods behind his house. 7 Sept. Relatively warm, humid night in this area. Catch at Berson's: Sorex - 1 (WZL #2986) Microtus - 2 (incl. 1 juv.) Peromyscus - 4 (388:1 ?) S. edge Tomale Bay St. Pt.: Sorex - 2 (both released alive) Microtus - 4 Peromyscus - 5 Blacksmith shop site: Microtus - 7 & many others seen. At the Tomale Bay Pt. site at least 1-5 traps were taken open by woodrats (judging from debris.)

LIDICKER 1969 the shore late & preparing for large-scale techniques. Walked with a few boats & caught by ornithologists in mist nets, at Samphi (13 mi. N Makary). WL # 3011 has large coconut-shaped gland on throat. Worked into evening late getting two brown mephitics & skinning two bats. 19 July Went with Bill Peckars to check mist nets just N & S side of Ma'ina. Caught 3 Rousettas + 2 Syconyctis. Then went with him to Samphi to see that area. Processed 4 bats after lunch. Griffins arrived back from Highlands & Rod Suther (U. Illinois). Talked with them. Watched for bats 1815-1845. Saw several small owls, partially Pipistrellus + 1 large bat that emerged from a hole in a coconut palm & flew downward & away. Checked last nets just E & settled (N2030) after dinner with Suthers; caught only 1 sea bird. Worked with Griffin & Suther with a Rousettas in their flight cage. 20 July Ate breakfast, Griffin, Suther & checked mist nets N & S side of Ma'ina. Trapped 8 Rousettas including 1 older # (WL # 3019) + 1 Syconyctis female (#3020). Then went to Samphi with Peckars to check bats then. No bats (only 1 was left after all night). Skinned bats, sealed 2 which I found frozen in refrigerator.

LIDICKER 1969 20 July cont. - About 1415 "sing-sing" began outside of lab to celebrate the arrival of the Alpha Helix. Went for article on the way back to lab to skin a Dolomieu mirror that Bob Suther had studied the eyes of, removed them. The Griffins & I & Alan Wilson went to Sample to watch bats. From 1815 to 1845 watched bats flying over small ridge east between W of reserve training camp. Bats were streaming through a great number. Griffin had his bat detector & thought that was again our Hippidion galactus. From about 1830 on we saw that 80 % of a large bat just H. Dickerson. Griffin also thought that was some Embellamine & we saw our numerous small jirdiveller-like bats. When we got back, the sing-sing was just breaking up. Watched Wilson proceed to extract proteins from muscle of Paraxetium & Dolomieu. 21 July After breakfast, Griffins & Suther & I went to Melody. I got my shotgun registered & bought some corn. Then we looked south toward Sulfur Cave. This cave is just N of the Yalooma Leper Hospital. A strongly smelling stream flows out of the cave which is not far to the W of the road. In spite of the strong H2S smell, we saw fish in the stream & I water skied on the water. The cave was very hot inside & muddy. We saw about 30-40 Hippidion galactus.

LIDICKER 1969 and caught Smith hard net. On the way back, Griffith showed me a trail which leads to a cave into Dobsonia minor in it. After lunch Wilson showed us how to place samples on a stuck gel. Prepared bat specimens from freezer. Also injected calchicine into a Phalanger maculatus (13g, ad. &) and got more manner definition, using phalangy in which cooler for the night. 22 July Skinned phalanger (#3026) + accumulated bats. Petcher brought in a badly tangled mist net hung by J. Kittawa - coconut plantation - orchard which contained 16 Rousettus complex calls (9 were dead, 7 were alive + 1 if latter was released). Starting at ~1500, there was reception given by Delta Helix for various local dignitaries including "Lewa", Prem. of the local district Council. Harold Cogger from Durst. Museum arrived. At 1730 6 of us went to Sample for a last shoot. We arrived about 1815, strolled in from the Reserve Camp. At one point 3 of us saw bats pouring out of a gap in the forest. We heard a really mist net set with the help of a hard net very quickly caught 2 Aselliscus + 2 Hipposideros galenicus. Then we went on to the ridge; Griffith was recording H. lidickeri & K. Calvin & I was trying to shoot bats in a clearing beyond. We concentrated on one, but could not find it even after a long search. If we

LIDICKON 1969 a good bed flight. The bird team brought in a H. Didinus in the morning taken from a bed net about 30 ft. high at Sunki (River Camp). When we got back from Sunki ~ 1920, the remains of the capture were still going on. 23 July Went to Sunki to check on nets. Caught 1 Syconyctis & 1 Macroglareus. Asked Anton (local fellow who has been taking the nets) to keep nets open all night. tonight. Ken came back from Sunki - even, with two forest my Phalangers which he had found at Sunki for 25 ft and. Worked all day on specimens. Still to sign of Vince Sovik who was due in on July 20. 24 July Went for Sunki to check nets. We had 15 sets - the nets: Dolomites minor - 2 Hippopotamus Didinus - 1 (only bed from 30 ft. high Ascelliscus - 1 nets.) Macroglareus - 6 Syconyctis - 5 (including 1♀ with 9g. running eggs = WZL 3064 & 3065) Worked all day on specimens. Sovik showed up in late afternoon. He had missed his plane connection to Sydney & had to wait 3 days for a flight to New Guinea. Spend some time talking to Vince & in evening worked it talked with him tomorrow. He wants to get blood samples from as many of the mammal species as possible.

LIDICKER 1969 July 25 Walked on specimens. Picked up 11 vials of cell cultures for T.C. Hsu (M.D. Anderson Hospital, Houston). After lunch was into Muley with Capt. Bob Heines, Robby Heines, and Rob Rahm (Undergrad. Hobart Coll., N.Y.). We went to Fernwald's House in Muley where he is photographing birds along with Jim Kilkernan & his student Ross Robertson. They had 3 traps of bats for us which has taken out of 38 mist nets hung 2 mi. S Osuna. Went to P.O. & mailed package to Hsu. It rained almost all day as it did yesterday. Checked back for Maina on about 1500. Sent a letter from Osuna: from net 5 for 9 gmrd = deep forest - Dolomites - minw (?) - 1 (big bat) Peronyctinae - 1 from net 8 to. off grnd = dark forest - Nyctivene - 2 (sp. with reddish wings) Peronyctimae - 5 for net set on edge of forest - Planoctis amplius, canaliculus - 3 macroglossus - 4 x 1 batling (pleuro still attached) Sycorax sp. - 1 This is a total of 15 bats. Like finding the Peronyctinae sings later to arrive the 2 bat's and that they have set in at this stage to help up the singes or do Sycorax sp. & Macroglossus, but under clearing moth was only

L'DICKON 1969 What a species & packed gear for going into the Adellats mountains tomorrow. The evening before I had set I small mouse trap - betweth Griffins head since he had reported a "mouse" living in his office. Caught a adult of Ruttars exulans. Toward evening Herb Dassauer brought - my small R.exulans ~ 2 inches; a child & with 2 pups which he had gotten from local school kids. I dissected the way small individual + the pups (1S+1F, 35.gr.). The ad. F (AH 290) was killed by Vince & person. Aug 26 Drew up 0530, had small breakfast, & drove in to airport with Bill Peckover (Pt. Moray telegraphed a telephone, ornithologist). We arrived at airport at 0645. Our plane (Cessna) arrived a few minutes later. Our total cargo + us was weighed in at 772 lbs. We took off for Wanuma in the Adelberts about 0800. It was mostly overcast with numerous cloud (fog) patches on ground. Wanuma is on the main ridge & on the W side of the mountains in the Ramu drainage. It is a Lutheran Mission with a tiny rough airstrip. The plane took off promptly & just barely got away when the fog + rain closed in. Wanuma is ~ 2000 ft elevation. It rained all morning. Bill & I went for walk with 3 villagers for 2 1/2 hrs. We walked mostly NE toward main mountain ridge & got into very big forest before we turned back. The first two little villages are

LIDICKER 1969 Yamowe (local school teacher) of Uram. The farm speaks pretty good English. The village belongs to the Abisan tribe or language is the same here. After lunch Bill walked for a bit while I caught up on some notes. About 1430 I went to set traps with Yamowe. We went by his house so I met his wife and small baby. We took day another man as well. We went almost straight down maybe 100 ft. to the river (on W side of village). About 2/3 I lay down we started getting in to good point. Set 1 Sherman bait trap ~ 1/2 way down. River has only small flow with intermittent jets. Yamowe says there are no fish because it occasionally dries up. We set 15 traps along both sides of the stream, looking upstream. This must be very low for the bed bottom of the river which is apparently the Namagani, a river between the Namagali (to W) and Namagan (to E). We climbed back up by continuing upstream or at to the W. Eventually we hit the main track to the NW of the village which is the one Bill had gone down to see a house, but it turned out to be only a "playground" I.e brick-1-decked instead of a house itself. It rained intermittently in afternoon. After party we went back and baited briefly with the other fellow while Yamowe was to find a good set for our new spot (bank just above) - a 9# Hawker. When he called we were off down the slope again to set the trap. At 1 point I landed on a raft

Lt DICKER 1969 Log which broke open exploring a bird which I caught (No. 3069); the no having fox o. When we get back it was ~1800, just time to gather & mist nets & clear some jobs to head back down the NW track to get the . After ~ = 12-15 hrs work = left in Darkness of 2030 ft. We set the net. After dinner we studied two detailed maps of the area & finally located Wanama to our satisfaction - just to the east of the headwaters of the Namagai R. (Raina drainage), 2200 ft. with coordinates L: 145° 21'E, 4°, 52'S. Then we checked mist nets, had good caught 1 Macroglossus (WCL W.3073) & ~50 scarab girls. Got to bed about 2230. Aug 27 Up at 0600 to check mist nets. Caught 4 Syconectris incl'dg 1 with a big running fly (208,307x & 3075-), + 54 Macroglossus. Also 3 bird flew into the tent while we worked taking out boots & beetles (1 big orange headed mynah, + 2 different sp. of kingfisher). After breakfast I shinned 3 boots. Poshman kept checking the nets clear away in his. He was catching lots of bird, but something was also rolling the nets. In the early sun we also had 1 king of a Syconectris & Macroglossus - the net's cordding had apparently taken the net. Yancour had gone down to the river at 0600 to check on trap & reported catching nothing. After lunch I started setting traps. I went on a trail & a mission house which led down

Lidicker 1969 To a creek. Several hundred yards downstream from where I joined the creek, it went over a high waterfall and eventually seemed to join the Nakogami S.B. Wacona. This creek has clear water flowing and consists of numerous pools. From 130-1350 I got 17 fish (Shawn by his trip) along its steps down to the creek and along side I stream (downstream). The lack to get our boat in 15 was set on a forested flow island close this side (1425-1515). Returning for another 2 loops I hiked up the next 15 was a new garden area but this time: thick grass and thick sprouts along a trail leading to creek - lost 3 along creek (1630-1700). Finally I met the last 2 fish. I had a one year old garden with some turnip and lots of weeds. I ran out of interest on my tagged fruit that night = this last error. Finished at 1725. Returned to write notes. Had coffee drink with Meisel's brother and 3rd sons of trips. Brother was off after his to first two home visits. This was a clear day, with some clouding and brief rain shower in the PM. Meisel's are from Bavaria and with the Lutheran Missionary Circuit. They have been in Wacona for since last Feb. The local girls who are wearing long green skirts seem a little shy - often cross their arms over their breasts, the hands resting on the shoulders. A local lad brought in a big, dark adder during the day for which we paid 1 shilling. Later 2 lovely wound Stalagyris frogs were also brought in. At 1815 caught and Mahoney's caught last night at

LIDICKER 1969. And then it led just give birth to a baby; obviously it was a still-born baby or dead. Then the pregnancy seems to have a first dental stripe but the eyelid bigger than the iris shined and shoulder blades don't make a groove down the back. The henman lost both clevis we put ~ 2:25. Skinned left before dinner. After dinner skinned 2 more lints of the size Bill has still bleeding his third coat, I went to check the last nets. Bill had moved out Group A four almost 5 min, walk further down the track to NW. Not contained 1 Syconotris & 1 G macroglossus. While I was walking on second lint another lint the net (macroglossus new term). The 2 started taking out the sun. scats in the lint + smith smell but k: + do not my own me, but got shut again. I think maybe the quality of the lints is the same way have attracted the second two lints. I was almost back when I met Bill coming down the track. Got to lint ~ 2230. July 28 Got up 0600. Choked trifles to E & mission house. Nothing! After breakfast I arranged for two land Baris to set 5 running by Havelat trip for landicosts. Then I headed down the slope for the river when Yamone & 2 had not taken on 26th. I was joined by Yamane's youngest brother. I took the way back just later Yamane's house & had descended to

L.D. 1965 1600 ft. Before I was sure I was on wrong track. So climbed the 600 ft. Look up to Yanami's home; he stood on the right track at the grey button and kill went with me down to the mine. Checked trap and shot my dam (~1800 ft.); it had nothing in it. I had determined along a mine was 1300 ft. (900 below house). Picked up all 15 traps along the mine. They got nothing (I was ahead), so old bird fruit left although a few broad thuds were nearby. We climbed back and shot traps: 8 at 1540 ft. and 7 at 1620 ft. This was a long form on steep slope. All traps were baited with bread, peanut butter (only remnants; raw can) and starfruit or water fruit. I was exhausted by the time we got back to home - ~11:30. Bill had cleared the rest of traps - 89. Out of 5 nests (1 large) he caught 1 Nychioma (large nest), 1 Sycorax, and 2 Microglossus. That was 7 for night. After lunch we took a short hop. Then I cleaned 2 nests. Only a few stars of rain today, but thunder in late afternoon. First dolphin went + baited (I mostly along mine). Used bread/fruit's fruit + pair pair water fruit. Most also had remnants of peanut butter in them. Started the line at 1630. The traps Over traps was a lodge along wrong corner and contained a lizard (~1:30pm). The rest then 3 lines, then with peanut butter & bird's biscuit ok. Finished line about 1800.

LIDICKON 1969 July 28 cont. Skinned 2 more hats after dinner. The Bill & I left ~ 20:15 to check the nets. He had checked 3 more about 5-min further down the track. This makes a total of 8 nets including one night in the jungle and they remain cleaned flat. The nets contained only 1 macaw + 2 birds, a small kingfisher & a small dead owl/kite. In the net in the jungle, a lizard was creeping on it & we caught the bird (no. 3081). We were back at to bed by 21:30. Aug 29 Up at 06:15. Checked 4 trap lines to E. Caught nothing. P: used up traps #s 1+3 for re-setting. Bill went to nets. Only 1 bird this morning, a Roseatrus (no. 3083). After breakfast I went down to check my traps at 1540 & 1620 ft. Caught nothing but a lizard & large spiny (no. 3084). Redid all on lawn few far & broad on biscuit. Took camera down so took a few photos: 1) view w/ Yasuri's lawn 2) looking down from above trap site (1540 ft) 3) upper trap site (1620 ft.) 4) looking up trail (~ 1700 ft.) 5) from garden on top looking NW I also faked up the major traps set at ~ 1800. It still had fruit after 3 nights, but did not look handy. Back on top by 10:30. Had "doctor boy" just bandage on my finger which had flared up from a bee bite some

LIDICKEN 1969 July 29 cont. 5 days ago. Propound brignts determined 2 lists. First line, a 1/2 Stannins - group of trees on forested slope above creek (&) a coal to & village. Then next second line, a 1/2 in some area (clue waterfall) including zone along a rock outcrop. All then located into quarter & round vicinity. Decided to learn off for third night west of old traphin (no 2, or formerly?). Added four days to visit in this trip on the line and too heavily did my first list. Since I was not far from though, the next four trips did not get much more than a few rods & a well. All then shots also had his unit & peanut butter. Took several photos: a) just of village; b) looking down toward & creek; c) a bottom of creek; d) view from traphin no 2 (fanning) Picked up first x of this line traphin, January 11. Heavy thunderstorm first few miles of trip. Took 12 next trip & explored = district of airstrip. Set out - 3 yards of 4: 1) grass weeds just on w edge of strip; 2) & 3) - thick undergrowth of giant ferns = 2nd growth quite off NW corner of airstrip. Took several photos of women, last one of day in shop of airstrip looking S. at 17 x50 after a rainstorm. After dinner Sandenup (local school teacher) invited me to talk to large group of children & a few others assembled in the church. We did our best, Bill: "pig-in" & I with Sandenup translating. Then I went with Yaronne to his

L1 DICKER 1965 home to give him my address & to chat awhile. Around 2045 Bill & I headed out to check the nets. This time they contained avg 1 knightrider & 1 Seyongaster. Wadea gathered up some of the numerous scraps. Rattles = the net to feed to our two captive knightriders. Got back 2145 & talked Gamma politics with Meisal until ~2215. Saw a hawk & 9 fruit bats flying - in 9, from now on rest. Aug 30 Got up 0600. Checked new tryping just above waterfalls. Caught avg 1 skink, 2 granzotter, 1 frog, + 1 was chewed & empty. Picked up weaving (1 frog) on ferous-1c line; none of these was even closed. Then checked 12 traps along airstrip. Also nothing. After breakfast Bill accompanied me down the nets to my traps at 1540+1620 ft. Then caught very little. They had retreated so all contained both papaya & star fruit & luscious fruit. Got back up ~1015. Skinned 1 fruit from last night, got some lizards, + skinned 1 of 2 baly pheasants that came in on July 27. Much rain = afternoon. Went up to N end of airstrip to release 12 traps set there (luscious & star/fruit) + cast 11 more traps - that same area, same bait. The 2 came back + ran into Santing, + a result of talk with him we went to little store new house + cast 4-set traps (new from store) in the store for rats, 2 on shelves now got's his units that had not droppings in the boxes + 2 in other new bags of

LIDICKEN 1969 rice. Bird killed his unit around 4/5 pm next morning. Revisited 32 trap close yesterday - his unit a starfruit. After dinner Bill & I looked for bird lets + tree when we had seen by fruit lets last night. Arrived at 10pm on 20th & immediately shot 2 Pteropus (3088 + 3090). Also shot a Rg. gaudius (big look) that was climbing up the trunk of the same tree as the birds were feeding (3089). Spotted it by eye shine as it hung very well camouflaged. Quite a few other Pteropuses feeding - then + fluttering around. In nets we had 2 Paranyctimene (closely together) + 4 Syconops. When we got back & took call culture from one of Pteropuses + preserved some of its liver for Hsu. July 31 Checked traps + started carrying them in. Before breakfast & brought : 17 of them down waterfall + all but 5 from airstrip line. After breakfast Boris & I went down to retrieve the 15 traps set at 1540 + 1620 hrs. Caught nothing in any of the. Also nothing in the 4 star traps. Then first nets found and 3 Macroglossus. Skinned 1 of Paranyctimene + the then young Phalanger that died (I was trying to keep him alive long enough to get him back to Mainland). Recorded my running traps, 15 from cave & 5 from airstrip. Took a few photos around village. Beautiful sunset. Noticed that the Paranyctimene skinning

L10ICKEN 1969 earlier could move his tatted limbs unhurriedly when touched. Photos taken included one of Meissl's Home (code name "Hotel Quebec") w/ Yup'silk, nurse, etc. Meissl's wife Christoph & Hilda & son from Bavaria; their 6mo. old child is Ursula. Talked to Saranup some more; his [illegible] family home in Jogamp, although the villagers have given him the name Bakam which he does not like prefers the former. He told me that Dr Ziegler had come through Warren - 1967 on his way to Attitash & he had also had him explain his work to the school kids. Bill O2 checked list notes about 2030. Heavy rain fell just before we left & continued for awhile (which we walked down & worked on that night). Christ / Nyet; man of 9 assisted me performing & synchronetics. Saranup was quite interested in my deals with Ziegler & I promised to send him anything that I subsequently wrote about the Adellents. Aug 1 Bakam up as usual at 0600 & packed up for leaving. The plane (Cosmic, pilot Stan Reed) was due in at 0815. Talked some more with Saranup & took photos of him & family in front of his home. Found out that his family name is Magin, wife's Yumo, adopted daughter - Akim & son who died - Marden. North coast in the 4 steps in the storm. By 0900 it had fogged in heavily & started to rain. It looked

LIDICKER 1969 Like I wouldn't get out of it today, but it cleared up justilly & Stan came in about 0545. Dick Zweifel got off & I got on; we also carried a sick man who had walked in from the road & was headed for Yakima Hospital. We had an uneventful flight back to Medary. After about 5 hrs Harold Coppe stood up to meet me & we got back to Melvyn by 2pm, after visiting Greenwell's - Medary to deliver 3 live birds to give. They were packing to leave for Mt Hagen that afternoon, but decided to take the birds with them. He also stopped at the P.O. Walked all afternoon & into evening shivering, etc. About 2230 began to feel very tired & the I got bad chills. Aug 2 Woke up very sick, fever & chills & muscle aches. Rested most of mom. Processed 2 canards - afternoon, a cardicent & Melongs brought in from Capuchin Seminary across the bay (3102 + 3103). First time after The Melongs had this like last time John & picking it up by the smell of the birds to identify, the skins ripped badly. This seems to be a genetic disorder & I remember the Melongs taken in 1962 in the Barlaka Valley were very fragile around the neck & on top of the head. Rested in late afternoon, now fever (to 103.6'F) & chills. For 2 evening I began to feel a little better.

LIDICKER 1969 Went to sleep in Griffin's caravan by the log, because it was cooler (no air conditioning) & the bed had springs so we could lie comfortably with my sore muscle. Began malaria treatment today. Aug 3 Felt pretty weak. Stunned a few minutes & rested on + off all day. Fever in afternoon but less severe than before. Aug 4 Felt better but still very weak. Stunned 1 small Malaria & did minor parts on this + cty. 4 P. maculatus (3111). Also stunned a couple of Malarays from the Cyluniki Seminary Took easy. Light fever only today. About 2230 began feeling very tired again & still was until about 0130. Aug 5 5:th again today. Stunned the P. maculatus in the morning. At lunch brought in 14 Sycoray starlings from the 5 mist nets he is operating locally. Some were dead & died shortly. I gave a drink to 38 or 59 + released. Only 1 + (new term) flew away immediately. Most of the others definitely died. I went to rest at 1130. By noon I felt very sick. The malaria treatments apparently haven't been doing anything for me. When Tom Geddes (and) got back from a driving trip with Frank Telfort we decided to go into Maday Hospital. Left about 1800. Checked in & then checked out.

LIDICKER 1569 They found no diagnostic symptoms, but made a blood smear + gave me two sleeping pills which anesthetized me for the night. Aug 6 Blood smear negative. Dr. Henry (the physician - a pediatrician actually) took me in) took a blood sample + sent serum away to Morphy for antibody tests. About 1500 I began to feel more alert than since yesterday morning & finally even Aug. 4. Ate dinner relatively enthusiastically for the first time since Aug. 1. Aug 7 Today I felt like I was going to survive. My fever still classified as FUO (fever of unknown origin). Rested, read & wrote a few letters. Dr. Henry says that in hundreds if people fevers caused by viruses are a little known - mostly because they are usually not fatal. Aug 8 Tom Zoller arrived about 0800 + picked me up at the hospital. We left about 0830, went to post office & bookstore (where I bought a book on jigsaw English) & then to Amset Office where I made a reservation to Dr. McKay for Sydney on Aug. 28 & Dr. Sydy for SF on Aug. 29. Skinned a few coins from Wawa & wrote letter from Warren (nos. 3112-3118), resting intermittently,

LIDICKON 1969 The Rattus (3) from Passam Ayrlic. Sto. were all taken in buildings. The Pogonomyx taken by Zwiefal (no. 3118) was caught by hand 5-6 ft. up in a creping at night in garden vegetation. Aug. 9 Skinned a Pogonomyx of another species from Tambak collected by Rollin Bauer (no. 3119), and a captive Dactylopsila from Bangor River (no. 3120). Noted that its eyes are very well protected by the zygomatice arches. In afternoon went to Yaganum Sulphur Cave with Frank Talbot. First we collected fish in the stream coming out of the cave - using water one. We got a good collection but seemed to miss the biggest ones. Then we went in the cave and collected 5 more Hipposideros calcotratus for bleeding. Saw 20-30 more individuals. It was wetten in the cave than last time but just a lot of muddly. On the morning I bled the 5 bats and skinned a Pteropus from Ba:teloy plantation which I had earlier gotten (no. 3121). A warm sample from it, it is a different species from the one at Wannam. Got to bed about 2300 but couldn't sleep for long time because of 2 cups of coffee. I had an Alpha Helix during short party which Alan Wilson served - a dessert made out of starch gel & mandarin oranges. Aug. 10 Feel a bit weaker to day. Stuffed the Pteropus.

LIDICKER 1969 Aug. 10 cont. Skinned least night. Then skinned a broad-cowrt that was alive in a cage when I first arrived in Mairon. I had 2 ly. hand eggs which died at different ages & were frozen (#3122). Then a beautiful specimen of Murexia arrived from Wanwe & I skinned that too. The group from Wonk returned early in the morning although Gai & Tom Melway continued on the same plane with Jon Athguist & Robin Bauer who were on their way to Daru, at the mouth of the Fly River. On the afternoon I decked gear for going to Hagen tomorrow, rested, wrote 2 letters, & skinned 1 of yesterday's H. calcaratus. After dinner skinned 2 Rattus collected earlier by R. Bauer from the Tambul area (3127+ 3128). Noted that both females had very long clitoris & ugly anal glands. Looked through bats collected by Wonk group & found 1 E. ballomura which I also skinned (#3129).

LIDICKER 1969 We to him arranged to have someone meet me. About 1030, the ranger of Tigi Plantation when Silly saw is arrived to meet Ferguson. I continued to wait at the airport. About 1330 Ferguson Mark came back to see if I was still there, having completed their chores in town. At about 1400 he decided Ross was coming so with Mark's help we arranged for a private mission plane to fly me to Baiger River. We carried my gear to the mission hangar and found the pilot. He said he had one other flight to make so he would be back - about an hour. Mark & Ferguson took off for Tigi & I waited some more. About 1515 the plane returned & we looked on my gear. The pilot charged me $10 for the flight. He disappeared on his other route for about 15 min., & then he finally took off about 1540. It was a very interesting flight over the Waghi Divide & down into the Baiger R. valley. He landed on the Baiger R. strip, or piloted my cargo on the grass, & the pilot took off again. I grabbed my 7mm by a binoculars & looked for the Aginc. Site. over the airstrip to see if I could find any way to get to our Baiger R. field party. I finally contacted a Mr. McGrange who was kind enough to have one of his crop drives in the 6+ mi. to the Halathorn Bird Sanctuary. I arrived there at w 1700 & met Dianne George, manager of the sanctuary. He gave me something to eat & drink, which was very welcome.

LIDICKON 1969 11 Aug cont Since I had not had any lunch, I then showed around the sanctuary. The ferns were clear of the Sanctuary as well as Jives & Ross. At about 1845 Shane drove me to Tas Hemsworth's place in Tasmania Valley where I finally after long lost met up with Vince Smith & Dave Gravatt. We had dinner, chatted, & then they went to check a few nets. It was almost 2230 before we got to bed. I looked through some of the stuff accumulated here in the freezer while they were checking the nets. 12 Aug. Still not completely well. After breakfast started cleaning nets that had come in today, including 1 Dobsonia poliocephalus taken in a mist net strong across a pool in the river. I also cleaned a Nyctimene which I found in the freezer which seems to be a species new for the collection (no. 3135). In addition to the 2 Sycoryctes cleaned, 2 chiroptera were released & 1 other was frozen directly. Took trip after lunch. Then we set 4 Gy. colliphila line traps along the shore of the river now where we saw tracks in the mud along the shore (possibly hydropygine tracks). The traps were baited with meat. Then Vince & I set out 17 of the G. Sharman-style traps in a forested area. We set them out in a hurry since it was almost dark, & baited the traps with banana slices. After dinner cleaned the 2 Sycoryctes,

LIDICKEN 1969 12 Aug cont. Down George came by briefly also. Finally got to bed ~ 22:15. Heard Donovan flicking around - truly have both tonight & last night. 13 Aug. Felt pretty good today. After lunch just checked traps again. Caught nothing. Studied skinning some of morning's catch & took bats. Quite a few were frozen without skinning, & 1 Syconyctis was released. At lunch up in the house & he felt it fair-weatherly & ate avidly. Also skinned the one of Macropus taken from this camp (on Aug 5). After lunch I found a dead Rattus (mader complex) in the house. It had been dead some time so made complete skeleton of it, it (~314g); it had punctures on each side of its chest so was probably caught by a dog or cat. Also a Echimys was brought in this afternoon, caught in 1 of our large collapsible traps. I also skinned it. Set out 17 more Shrew traps - forest along stream where Vince & I had set last night. I also rocketed on other 17 traps in that locality. Then cast 12 rat traps (snap traps) baited w/banana along the edge of the river where we saw tracks in the mud. Then set 10 Shrew's in tall cane grass (

Saw 4 Mus. spc. in Dave's room by net door. Aug. 14 Checked drop by R:ve forest. Had 1 cd. of Hydroge chrysogaster set trap out along edge of river & bailed with banana. On other semi-idyllic block set trap was empty, None of the other traps had trapped. Brought Hydroge back a took a bit of lung for cell culture but I think he was probably dead too long. Vince got some blood out of the heart though. Then I checked by forest traps. Caught nothing. Skinned Hydroge, 2 Parasites + 2 Echizenia The latter 2 were brought in caught in owl fly traps. Talked to Greene regarding the Parasites skinned closed right & he gave me the locality date. During the afternoon, caught a stork (no. 3153) in one of the 4 Mus. spc. traps and last night in Dave's room they caught nothing overnight. At about 1530

He also told us that Al Brush had booked Vince of [illegible] on an 0830 flight from Hagen to Madang on Aug. 17. Gravett is to go to a seminar at 9:00 PM, for 3 days & then join Sally etal. in Goroka. Charles trips along river & followed by his truck.

Left most of our gear there & the rest to Steamskit Co. where we left our insulated box of frozen material in their walk-in freezer (Tas wrote us a letter to Mr. Peter Clifford of the freeze dept. to get permission). Then we wandered around town, went to bank, post-office, curio shop. Sat on a lawn & worked up notes. At even we returned our specimens from the freezer & carried them to the Anssett Office. Then we looked for the Hotel where Dawson said he might meet us for lunch. We finally found it had lunch (to sign of Dawson) & we walked back to Ansett about 1300. The flight left pretty delayed ; it was a cargo plane coming up from Friday. About 1515 the airboatman finally took us to the airport . Arrived at 1615 & we finally got away ~ 1645.

LIDICKER 1965 Aug. 18 cont. Leave at 1330. We flew Ligh because of lots of rain storms. Finally landed at Maleny about 1750. Naturally there was nobody to meet us. We managed to get in touch with Buster Bowman who is the Alpha Helix Customs Agent in Maleny. He picked us up at 1830 and we finally got to Maiwar at 1900. After dinner it was mostly unrefining species talking with Silley and others. It looks like the Sarina trip is now since Zweifel who was organizing it, is not able to get to out of Darwin until tomorrow, so my scheduled flight goes in to Sarina for week, on Weds. (Aug. 20) Aug. 19 Worked on 3 Phelayers, 2 from Green Gene while we brought back skins and 1 P. orientalis that G. Cooper and Wilson bought back from Kar Kar dealt with them. Also skinned a Nyctimera (med. sized species) from Kar Kar. Zweifel did not get in again today. Baxter O'Brien went out and shot 5 water buffalos today (Bubalus). Apparently they were introduced along time ago to work rice fields which now developed. Vince and I went to Alexistoke where 2 were brought in for butchering and got a good sample of blood. Then we looked around the old Alexistoke WWII airfield and saw a number of old wrecked planes (at least 1 was Johnson) and numerous bomb craters all over the old airfield. Worked on phelayers night

LIDICKEN 1969 Aug. 19 cont. up to dinner time. We learned today that the Alpha Helix will be returning to San Diego in a few days. This is to allow Group C coming after us to go ahead with plans. Because of budget cuts, if the ship were to remain here, Plan C would have to be cancelled. So we put together for a cave trip tomorrow. Aug 20 Right after lunch, Vince and I went to Melody. I mailed a box of culture vials to T.C. Hsu - Houston and then we loaded 5, looking for caves. We were hoping to find some way to get to Bili Bili Island where there are apparently 2 caves. We went to the Yagamu Hospital and then to the Yaganu Leper hospital on the road to the Sulphur Cave. The leper hospital is about 1/2 mi. further S than the Sulphur Cave. This is the road to the south of the Sot Sot River. We stopped at the hospital and asked about getting to Bili Bili. We were informed that this was wrong road and we would have to go back to turn up at Paloran. Then we went back to the main Yagamu Hospital and asked them about a cave which is supposed to be near the first village S of the hospital. We didn't learn anything about the cave but found out that the village in question was called Barup and that the road over this is called Arret. We went to the village but found it deserted. Arret is just the village we came to a house where we stopped and asked about the cave.

LIDICKON 1969 Aug. 20 cave. A young fellow came with us to help us find Anant. We couldnt find him, but found 1 of his sons who showed us to a cave a short way E of the village. It had an entrance about 10 ft. high & bent in to the right. We started seeing bats very soon. We stopped to put up a mist net in a narrow part of the cave, but couldnt very effectively close it off. Then we explored through the cave. It eventually came out to another entrance on the side of a bluff with a vertical entrance of about 20 ft. We went the 20-40 knots back toward the net & eventually caught 1 Miziopetes (no. 3172) + 5 Hypsipetes galeritus. We also picked up a couple of frogs which were common just inside the first entrance. It was my lot & our friend climbed up a coconut palm tree, dropped down 3, knocked them & we had a refreshing drink. 50v. things flow there cave which we tried to go to the Swiss Calacalia (Ity end land did any wise like this swirl) MADAN'S to Yaloteh to Omura to GUM R.

The Pteropus & Phelgyr inoculates which came in handy (Baxter brought it by) on Aug 12. Zinsfeld finally got back from Darn. Vince & I worked through the frozen material & got the brain material together including blood samples. After dinner I finished the Phelgyrs & skinned 2 of the animals that Zinsfeld brought back. Packed up [illegible] one of the collecting sheets with specimens for putting aboard the ship tomorrow. Aug 21 Vince & I left right after breakfast to go back to Banup. (~1/2 mi, S of the Yaganum Hospital). We went 1/2 mi. beyond Banup to the home of a fellow who helped us yesterday. He took us down behind his house to a large cave. We walked a long way into it wit left on going. We saw quite a few bats but we didn't bring a wrist bat. I shot two w/.38 dart : 1 Hippusidrus calcaratus & 1 H. galenitis. We thought maybe we would come back & get a wrist bat over the entrance. Then we followed Griffin's directions to a tunnel cave off the main road to Omure, just a short distance past the turnoff to the Yaganum Hospital. It is to the N of the road & a stream flows through it. This cave we are calling Tunnel Cave,

Picked up some equipment at the airport on the way down. Back at Maling we packed up the artifacts for putting on the ship, packed a crate with skins tools etc, + also printed packing one of the specimen charts. Lots of gear was carried on the ship.

Also received 2 lots before our from yesterday. Also a wounding Petri dishes from Mamum Island we injected a mammal culture media. The we one Sgt Cogges brought back + they were feeling it somewhat with. Also last night it avidly the few jars. We killed it because it had suddenly developed catarracts - both eyes (20. 3183). The Alpha Helix left Mawana at noon. I went to Makung for refueling. Finished working on animals after lunch + then wrote a letter home. At 1500, Sibley, Brock + I went into town. I got my ticket endorsed at Arnett for the trip home, went to post office when we tried unsuccessfully to call Bill Packow + P.t. Marshy (W.S. Packow, Box 783, St. Marshy - how phone 55177). Then we went to the ship. I just came species in the freezer on board + found that my trunk of species had been stored on its end. Rectified this will help captain. Went to civil yard on way home. It was too late to get ashore by the time we got back to Mawana. Tilled, read + showered + evening. Went to bed early. Aug 23 Wrote letter to Mr. W.L.

LIDICKER 1969 Aug. 23 cont. regarding an ex post permit for the species I expect to carry out in it. Went into making with Bob Storey. He just a few specimens on the ship; I went to the bank, sent a telegram to Bill Packham telling him that I'll be away on the 27th. Also briefly visited Safit Cuvier picked up small chaps masks. Then we went back to the ship (still left at noon), then to the airport to pick up some live herps that had come in from Karkar. Back to Melville for lunch. It has not rained significantly for several weeks now & the woods are extremely dusty. After lunch, Tom Bostel, Vince, Al Bruck, Don Belacchi (2nd yr. student at Sydney U.) & I took a small boat & went out to the far edge of the N. end of Sisiut Island & waited for a swain & smoked diving. About 16:00 Vince & I went out to set traps. We went to a forest area about 2/3 of the way to Sangi. We set out 44 traps on the east side of the road alternating shamis & rat traps (22 each). Then we put a line of 13 Shamis on the west side of the road in forest. Scouted some jonidilla others area for setting. Set shami's before dinner & I was not only salty but covered with dust. After dinner wrote letter to Tadiki & came up on notes.

LIDICKER 1969 Aug. 24 Checked maps (N 2 1/2 mi. N of Mainline = 11 1/2 N of Makong); camper working. Picked up a small hybrid then thought it best to keep going. Took a few photos at the Vince & D left to make another attempt to get to Bili Bili Island. We turned E on main road while left main Rd. to Omum about 1 mi. S of the Sum River where there is a trade store. This road took me to the coast & the village of Bil Bil which is just opposite the island. We talked to 3 different men in the village & they all agreed it would be difficult to get to the island without an outboard motor boat. They had only one iron canoe & it was pretty rough build. Also 3 different answers on how many cars there were on the island & whether or not they contained bats. One said there was 1 cane, another agreed with our information that there were 2, & the third said there were 3. Also two claimed bats were absent at this time of year (usually present at other times) & the third said there were bats present. I don't think they go over there very often. So we went back to the main road & continued S to Bannp. We went to the S. Bannp Cove & placed a mist net over the entrance. While we were working a Colilichin flew into the net from the outside. Then we returned to Mainline late for lunch. After- wards we took a number of pictures of the group. Zuric Drennan, Copper, & Tom Dobble were leaving

LIDICKON 1969 Aug 24 cont. at 1430 for a island lifting collecting trip starting on Manus Island. Took about an hour & the rest to set out more traps. Went to south forest ~0.8 mi. S by road & the Mai was down. Set line of 25 traps which alternated no traps & sharing except last trap which was a Mus Spec: bait banana. The sec additional line of 17 Shares, giving total of 42 traps - this report & 57 at other area 11½ mi. N making for grand total of 99 traps. After dinner Vince & D, Alan Wilson & Dan Beluche drove to S. Bump Camp when we arrived about 2020 to check our mist net string across the entrance. It contained 2 Hippotion galactitis, 1 H. diadema & 2 large holes. All the holes seemed to be on the right side for someone to run (no.3192) outside of the net heading in. Returned to Mai hom when I cleaned the 2 galactitis & started work on the diadema before going to bed after 2300. Aug 25 Vince had already gone with the Toyota when I got up at 0700. It turned out he had gone to check the net at S. Bump Camp. Besides another large hole in the net, we had 2 H. diadema, 1 H. galactitis & 1 Ascelllurus. After breakfast I most were too tangled to tell which way they were going, but Vince thought that at least 1 of the diadema was going in to the camp. After breakfast I checked the traps. At 11½ mi. N making I picked up all the traps. Caught 1

The lizard was all in live traps. the latter was given to Zweifel. The Hydromys was in a net trap and on top of a log. There are no streams in the area that I know of for at least ½ mile, maybe more. I checked but did not pick up the traps at 8½ mi. N Makong. Here caught 1 lg. ♀ Echinosperm (lying next to a spring and trap); no. 3191), 1 ♀ (no. 3188), Makong in a net trap at the base of a large tree, 1 Sphenomorphis jolensii & 1 Trilobomatus griseus (no. 3189 & 3190). Both were again under The Sphenomorphis was in a net trap & had a worm in its mouth; was caught while I was checking the trap. The T. grisei's was in a Skimmer. It is interesting that all 3 reptiles were caught in the 34 net traps not a more in the Skimmers. A couple of other net traps were Spring. Skimmer comes in late morning, or afternoon. Vince went into town in the afternoon to receive the last bit from S. Barus Cave. He also arranged over- night accommodations for me in Port Moresby for the light of the 27th. At about 1615 I went out to check traps at 8½ mi. N. We had a hard rain storm which was the first one I saw in a week. Had 1 more S. jolensii's in a Skimmer trap. Set 3 additional 18" line traps along a stream through the forest. The stream seems to be slightly tidal & contains Periophthalmus.

LIDICKER 1969 Didn't get to bed until 0030. Oct 25 Got up at ~0730. Checked traps after breakfast. I caught nothing in mine; several were stringy. Others caught crabs, + a few thornybug maraculatus. The latter must have been low in numbers. Crabs swarmed all morning. After lunch we had a goather trapping lesson & almost everyone got traps (master's x live trap). After this we split into 2 teams taking a group down to lowest north of Reno to set traps. Fred McCallum & I took the west & first we went by the site. to a large rock out crop where we set traps for Newtona - mostly Scyther traps + some net traps.

Oct. 26 Picked up all traps, starting locally. I got nothing in mine. Again it was a cold frosty morning but some weren't that yesterday. Temperatures during the night must have dropped again to about 20° F or less. In the rock out crop in N camp we caught only 2 P. monachalis. In the regular monachalis area abundant, so many were caught. Rod Jackson & I had a bin of 40 small stones & we caught 11 monachalis + 1 M. crotona. Three of the monachalis was released to the remaining 4 bins as we thought best & gave to Rosengren - Psychology. The Boulder field produced 1 P. monachalis & a beautiful Newtonia cinnamona. Susan K. Stiles caught a Sowerbytownia deweyi near the top of the ridge N. of camp. A small amount of skimming was done before we cleaned up, but found another camp.

Then we walked up Schwalmor hill to see the Cellar live through the oak woodland, & then went to Schwalmor Meadow. From there we came down the hill looking at various junipers, wood nut havers, etc. In the meadow at the base of the hill (close the road) we found alot of fresh microtous signs. Then we split up, Pettus took a group back to Jimmie Bell's ranch when some had just come back right & Fred & I took a group to Robertson Creek. At the millhouses we ascended up the county road to the gate looking into the Turgan property, decided & walked down to the stream. The stream was flowing & contained fish.

LIDICKER 1965 Currently here. There are lots of Weston moths. I set 14 traps, S.T.C., especially for skews. When we got back to S.T.H.Q., there was bad sleighing so we were making off to head to John Traphlin. I went up to the mouth of Median Canyon and sent my 16 traps there (for his trip around this area). Like last night, no record after dark – the worst yet. After dinner there was thin for a little shining before 20:15 when we got together; John Davis's living room for a slide show on this year in Peru. Our work was completed by evening in a trap in Davis' yard. Nov. 23 Picked up traps at Anderson Creek immediately after breakfast. No skews were taken. I caught only 1 giv. Parangus californicus (no. 3206). About all my traps were strong, presumably by wood ants; snow was coming every. Several beetles were also taken. The 2 fielded up traps at Median Canyon. I had 1 Weston (same individual as killed & had caught the first last night – i ran trap. Saw stain on tail lid & had send to Bill Mitchell) Parangus californicus - 1 (in his trap) + 1 tail Parangus californicus - 1 (no. 3207).

Mered 27 cont. When we arrived on the island we saw a baby from garter snake coming down the road carrying a egg. Microtars which it had by the hand. When we grabbed the snake to examine the same, he dropped it. He carried the house which was injured around the head but alive. It died later in a live trap (specimen no. 1449). Later Yon L. found another snake with a microtars. This one was caught also (no. 1448). Snakes have been abundantly and very active. Several were seen drinking at the spring (N ward of W beach). Before finishing setting up traps on W beach Los caught a house in a trap trap (a BUFFY), no. 1447. The vegetation was a common level that had covered the road for this time of year. Dog's grass and some on the N S. beach was already yellow, and in other areas the grasses were looked out. We also learned that last year the island had been sprayed with weed killer by helicopter and most of the Buckthorns was dead or nearly so. Also the buckeye trees were badly hurt with 1 of the 2 down the C spring Johnny road. In general the ground to be much less in the way of wildflowers blooming than is normal for this time. Blanford is currently hard-spraying Johnson oak and Rhus hardly to get rid of them. Numerous phloxants are once a head again, a quite a few Colts. Quail. A few Bob-whites were heard singing as well. In addition to the snakes a few

Blanford says that a few months ago a state public health official trapped about 30 rats & was searching them for fleas; no fleas found. Lugo School ~ 11/45. This time we took Louis Baptista out with us (instead of A. Kuhn) & he recorded songs of W.H. co. Spencer. When we got back to LSB, we went through live individuals & picked out 10 cd. ♀♀ + 10 cd. ♂♂ for Ayako, & killed the rest. Many of the 10 cd. ♀♀ were obviously pregnant. (of the 10 ♀♀ Ayako had only 2 litters were counted since the other was nested with 8♂ the previously stolen male they were from. The 2 surviving litters did not look ed & present.

Quite a bit of fled eigen has seen in this area +, hows was hard in the grass, so ther was no need to forage further. It was a canary way dry. A few daisy's were blooming at an occasional interval. Some Elymus stalks still had green stems. Set out total of 131 dots (30 by. Shears + 101 Longwells).

DICKEN 1971 27 Mar cont. Right hawks were in the back-sun on the E side. Total 1,221 traps set (all live traps). Lots of shorebirds & ducks & other birds seen including: Long-billed Curlew - 2; Stary Egret - 1; Bufflehead - 6; Golden-eye ~10; Canvas-back - ~20; Red w. Merganser - 2; Gt. Scaup ~10; Mallard - 2+; Canada Goose ~6. Took a few photographs and sketched, but came too wet by late coming out. Left Duluth ~ 17:15. Mr. Blanford showed me the new net design they are using. It is in braid of jute twine & the plank is calibrod eyeholes and the sides. He claims that it is very effective for nets & that they had not seen a hook one for some time, & that the bait is much less attractive to Microtus than in the previous Johnson which we gave a cracked cone. He felt this method would have no impact on the microtine population. March 28 Another beautiful day. Guns was wet early in the morning (dew?). Arrived at 0830 with same crew + Van Lindeart. Picked up ducks hurriedly because a hunting party was due to arrive a little after 10 am. Shoreman traps: top 4 sideled - 2 E. side - 3

LIDICKER 1971 28 March cont. Anderson - 20 Myer - 17 McCollen - 25 (1 hr. completed before his left foot lights + drop result). WCC - 15 (5 in Sali-Dyst. + 10 from Wheelock) 82 However, when we got back I think he had to, another bird allowed the house to escape. Another got away in the aerial room. So total catch should be 81. Fred brought along a straight stick he uses for counting running transects. It is 6 ft. long & 4 ft. thick or it was 10 ft can be sampled each time it is placed on the ground. We placed the stick 19 times & counted active mung. We took turns throwing it & sampled the grid area & on my to the N. slope. We got the following counts: 0, 2, 2, 2, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 3. = 18 mungs / 190 ft. or 9.47 " = 100 ft. X 9.7 = 92 mung / acre. Since he did not place the stick in shallow areas or other places of low Microtus habitat, but only: in the area actually trampled, this estimate is probably too high for the island as a whole. Angela jotted out 24 checklists (12 S + 12 F) for taking to her colony & starting for heterozygote tests.

Stockholm Island Trip Sept. 10 - Sept. 18 Sept 10 Left London with Mike [illegible] (research student of Sam Berry's) & Helen Murphy (Dept. of Animal Genetics, Univ. Coll.) & drove west to Marloes on the coast of Wales (Pembrokeshire). It was a clear sunny day. We crossed the Severn Estuary on the new Severn Bridge north of Bristol. We had lunch in a pub near Ragland (Monmouthshire). The only birds noted particularly were Rock & Jackdaws. We arrived at Marloes about 6 pm. when we were booked into a hotel called the Lobster Pot. Then we walked about a mile to Marloes Beach. Saw male cormorant, sign in / feature on [illegible]. At least 4 kinds of gulls were seen: Herring, St. Kilda-locked, Lesser black-backed & black-backed. Also saw 2 Sandwich Terns flying along the beach. Also noted various mid-level hunting, mostly Whinchats that was apparently a Dartford Warbler, Swallows, martins etc. We returned to town for a drink & dinner at 8pm. At about 9, Prof. Dennis Bellamy and his student John Morgan arrived from Cardiff to join us. We chatted until about 11 pm. Route we took from London: M4 to Windsor, the NW to Wellingsford, Faringdon & Cirencester, the SW to Sodbury picking up M4 again to cross the Severn; N or back roads to

LIDICKER 1971 Rayland, via the A40 through Brecon & Carmarthen to Haverfordwest. Stags!! After lunch I went to Martins Haven where we were to get a boat to Stokkholm Island. The boatman had not yet arrived and the wind was blowing stiffly from the coast. We walked up onto the headland & the back to the barrow. About 10 the boatman arrived (David's David's) (Terry Davies from St. ). The weather was clearing a little but the wind was still strong. At 11:15 he left for Skomer Island with a load of "day trippers", promising to return for me. We waited until noon and when David returned we loaded on gear. Around Martins Haven we saw: Pied Wag-tail, Robin, Reven-2, Jack-dawn, Dunrock, Yellowhammer, Linnets, possibly the Twite, Buzzard -1, Gannets, Cormorant (I caught a nice starey a large fish in the haven), Domestic pigeon, Sweller, Lambs tongue Wood pigeon, Capercaillie-2g. flock. On my way to catch some clams & shag. The trip out was very rough & we all got soaking wet. We had to land at the "north landing" on Stokkholm which is just a slippery shelved point of rocks below a cliff. (The south landing is a better one, but moves little when easterly & easterly winds are blowing which they were then - strongly). After a rather precarious landing we carried our gear up the cliffs to the Bird Observatory, had lunch about 2 pm. Beated up 100 Longwells right a track 50 to the right-hand side on the south end of the island, around

LIDICHOSE 1971 Sept. 11 cont. Well: it was hard from 05:30 to trap. I personally put out only 10 traps along the cliffs west of the lighthouse (there were 5 of us setting). Then we visited the lighthouse and played our respects to the keeper. They gave us a cup of tea, and we watched wrestling on the TV. Returned to the Observatory and set 50 traps around there. I met 3 more at the wood shed at Mike's and I put out 15 along the rock walls in the vicinity. Some traps were also set inside the buildings. After dinner I walked around island a bit with David B (a birdwatcher-amateur from Devon who was the only other member of our group) who was looking for Manx Shearwaters. We walked to lighthouse shed and saw 39 albatross wandering about. 35,000 pairs reportedly breed on the island, but the adults are that all gone. Other birds noted: Curlew (land) Lapwing, curlew sandpiper? - saw, a very unidentified small bird. Balling and I set up home-kicking in the loft of the cottage. Got to bed a little after 11 pm. Sept. 12 Got out about 07:45 and headed around looking at birds. With Berry's help (Garden) - Kentish Plover (Landing, Rock Pipit, Scaup, and Richard's Pipit (a rare accidental from Asia). Also dove-pigeon, starlings, shin, blackbird, Wheatears. There were also lots of warblers about - of the willow w.- cliff-cliff types. Took some photos of Obs. and finished 120 xth note.

He raised it from fledging (born in April). Got came around begging for food during much of kid-day. At 22:0 we all walked to lighthouse & gathered of py. Skimmers while Barry strayed them. We caught 108 in about 1/2 an hour. In addition I caught 1 adult which was released. We got back about 11:45 and had coffee before turning in. A few eggs still had downy feathers on the & I saw one which was almost completely covered with down (it was not disturbed). We also checked on traps near the lighthouse, except for the ones taken set immediately around the lighthouse, but including the 9 remaining ones of my line - nothing in any of them. Sept. 13 Got up at 7:30 o'clock and until breakfast at 0830. Some interesting birds seen were: 2 jays - 2; The Meadow a Tree, probably better off we clumpy-looking & seemed to have short legs, Reed hunting, rock jay-kits, wheatear, spotted flycatcher-l,

LIDICKER 1971 Sept. 14 cont. Checked after breakfast, a full hour round. Franks Rocks produced 9 mice (2 caught 3 in my 9 traps, 2 of which were near 2 more favorable locations, leaving 6 in that area). The traps and the hillings produced 10 mice for a total of 27. At Franks Rocks I discovered a nest of the Stock Dove, located under a large slab rock & containing 2 squabs. Last evening I found a dead [illegible] lesser black-backed gull with wing (it had been struck in Aug. as a juvenile), along the cliffs at Franks Rocks. In looking around before breakfast saw Carrot-2, family of 3 fledglings. Jack-daw - caught 14 of the 16 gouts (+1 stuck) on the island. Observed a jack-daw land on the back of one goat & after awhile jump onto its back. Processed all 27 mice caught although 3 had to be done after "tea". With Dennis, set 12 traps and other country hillings (5 in + wood workshop, 2 in it around the wood shed, & 5 by the garage cars) to supplement those left out for last night. We also found a trap that D.B. had missed this Am; we released the young mouse it contained. This trap was later set in the kitchen. Meanwhile Mike set 15 traps at N. cliffs. All 105 traps were again out. We have now discovered a total of 75 mice, 3 of which were dead & 1 escaped in the process. Read "The Island" by Ronald Lockley (pub. 1969 by Andre Deutsch) - the story of L's life on Skokholm & its history.

DICKER 1971 Sept. 15 Overcast but warm day; some sun - late afternoon & evening. Mike checked traps on the Neck before breakfast & caught 8 more mice. Afterwards we took in the morning 19 traps at Drake's Rocks; caught only 2 from them. The N cliff traps produced 6, all traps and the low-ridings 7. An extra trap I trapped yesterday was found with a live mouse (a really weird one). This gave a grand total of 24. We worked on the mice until 1800 finishing the cell & bringing our total to 99 for caught. After dinner we went to Spy Rock and set 30 traps (I set 15 N there - 10 on Spy Rock & 5 along adjacent cliffs). This left us about 14 dark un-set. Saw a gray seal (probably a 7) while we were setting traps near Spy Rock. There are more migratory birds around today than yesterday, and cliff-cliffs particularly were seen. I caught 2 of the latter in a large funnel bird trap for Barry to ring. Other birds seen I note: Pied Flycatcher - seen (I also detected that gentleman on sea yesterday with it) 5 Spotless Flycatcher - 1 Garden Warbler - seen (with Barry had one) Black-cap - saw Barry had one only Sedge-catcher - saw Barry had one only Mallard - 2 Crested Tit - lost 3 Thrushes - 1

At the afternoon we searched the compound for missing traps & found 5 glens - trap efficiency good 2 year ago. As 4 of these 5 ducks were 2 jims, 4 1/2 after dinner we processed a nos. 118 + 1189 - ending catch for the day = 20. About 1730 to 1825 we took 25 traps & went then along the NW & W cliffs of the island. This, with the 23 running at Sky Rocks gives us a total of 48 days out.

Picked off on line 30 knots on NW & W cliffs front, caught 16+ern. Then were lots more gannets or herring birds in evidence this morning compared to other. Next we pulled in our 23 tubs and Spy rocks. We had 8 additional nice bur (I had off 3 in my 13 tubs). This gave a total of 24 for day. Mike and I weighed the all before coming coffee break. Then Mike picked out 17 of the nice to add to the 8 he is bring back to London clinic. This left 7 nice which we processed in the usual way, 3 before lunch & 4 after.

LIBRER 1571 5.20. 18 cont. I went for a long walk to the South I did while we were waiting for Terry Davies to arrive at the inn. I also took quite a few photos. It was a little windy & a bit hazy, especially early in the morning, but still sunny & we were optimistic that Terry would come. Some birds seen: Stock Dove - 2 Carrion Crow - 6+ Jackdaw - 2 Oryg. thrush - catch - 2 Pied Flycatcher - 1 Wren - 1, Shallow - saw. Raven - 1 K: Hirundo - 300+ Gannet - few Skylark - saw. Winchat - 2 Spotted Flycatcher - 1 Whinchat - 1 Chough - 2 (the pair led home around 4 o'clock, but this was the first time I saw them). I got excellent views on 3 occasions; watched the forage from rock out crop to next crop, feeding the crocker with their long curved, red bills; they must be specialized feeders). But had to conform for coffee at 11:00. Barry showed me a lame young Stormy Petrel which he took from a nest in a rocky rock wall. Terry finally came at about 11:40. The tide was low but he came into South Haven. He finished off about 11:50, & after a much more pleasant journey back arrived at Mont. Isolation at 12:45. On route saw few new Bernett's crow species: 2 Sandwich Terns, 1 Chough, 1 Longwing, 1 Raven. At 13:00, we headed for the Lobster Pot & metres for lunch. John Morgan left us, as some relatives were at the Haven to meet him. Then we are another bird - waddler on the island with

LIDICKER 1971 Oct. 8 cont. J. Willis Student Tim Healey & his friend Morris. Shortly Mr. Tony Davies, the boatman arrived & we loaded our gear on his boat, recruiting 4 kids in his dinghy. Arrival on Skaer ~ 16.15, & after getting our gear carried up the cliffs to the warden's house, we set out for the prospective Skaer vole study area to set traps. The study area is to be just N of the old farm buildings which are in the centre of the island. The voles apparently prefer areas of broken fern with extra-sun litter under it & good drainage. We set out a small transect grid just W of the study area of 4 rows x 3 columns (12 stakes) at 20 yd. intervals. Then we set 4 longwall traps (crushed oats bait) at each stake - about 1 to 2 yds radius from stake. This was in an area of good broken cover. After dinner we chatted with the warden & his wife, Peter & June Corkhill, who were packing up to leave tomorrow for the winter. They will be going to the Camargue Nov. 1 for a trapping job, & then returning to Skaer in early March, 1972. Weather has mostly clear & mild. Oct. 9 After breakfast we picked up all our traps, marking & releasing the mice. Catch: Clethrionomys glareolus skomerensis - 27 Apodemus sylvaticus - 4 The voles are abundant, probably at least 200/acre,

Setting we took a walk to The Wick on the south side of the island down the cobbled track along the coast (500) to the lower. Grey seals are common and stones at frequently can be heard calling. On the South Haven we saw 4 seal pups in various places along the rocky shore. There were numerous small caves around the shores of the island which the seals use for jumping also. There was a violently heavy rain storm in the middle of the day, but later it cleared up, so it was a beautifully clear night. Oct. 10 Did took us until 1200 to finish running the traps. Catch: voles - 67 Apodemus - 11

LIDICKER 1971 Oct. 10 cont. + Com. Shrews -3 (8 traps non-functional) One gory vole + 1 shrew were dead in the traps. Everything else unmarked & released, except the 2 shrews which were only weighed & released. Then we pitched a large lot of blackberries from around the farm building & returned for lunch. In the afternoon we completed the grid by adding the #10 line to the walled area and the west end of the island. Just we hauled N to the coast from the farm & the round the coast to the Wiche & back to the study grid. We then set the 128 traps on lines 2, 4, & 6, with 8 per stretch as before. In our workshop we found 6 gopher pellets which I later examined: 1). - 2 notes (1 has 3 & by palaeo style) 2). 1 note, but 2 tails 1 of which is family Sovex 3,4,&5) all feathers, no bone 6) feathers + ~1/3 paper In the early afternoon I also made flat skins of the dead vole & shrew (we had no equipment for proper skins). It was quite windy today & partially overcast; the wind was from the west. A light fog & few stars could be seen. There are 4 more goats left on the island by the worker.

It is quite rough & windy, but otherwise we had a very pleasant boat trip back. Peter & Dave took us London via the A-4 (M-4) which struck through S. Wales & on the Severn Bridge. We stopped for lunch just just in Whitland, & again for a quick pint over the Severn Bridge (Blackwell's). We had dinner in Reading. It rained almost the whole trip back. The only bird worth was [illegible], Cormorant, gull, a Black-tailed Gull (at Mortimershaven). We arrived N. F. Finally ~2140. During the morning's trip, check another dead shag was found. It had been dead too long to skin so I killed it = female (WZL #3265).

Short of Beauvais, the car started to [illegible] misbehave, acting though there was a clog in the carburetter - causing trouble at speeds under 50 mph. Stayed that night in the Hotel Napoleon. 24 Oct. Cut over to the Autoroute & continued South. At 13 mi. N Mâcon we stopped for a break & noticed a microscopic outbreak along the road. We even found a dead owl lying in a runway. It was too rotten to save but took the skull. Several photos taken of us. Turned off Autoroute at Bollevin turnoff.

LIDICKEN 1971 24 Oct. Drove into mountains to NW of Claret. From Claret went W & N on the ridge to Campignan, then to St. Hyppolyte, Ganges, & Le Vigen. Went N toward Lesperon but turned NE a little & went up to about 3700 ft. Zonation of vegetation will not take quickly. Just above Le Vigen is broad f. almost pure chestnut. Then there is a mixed deciduous forest with tamarack and poplars, followed by broad leaved forest, & finally the laurel mixed with fir spruce, few birch, Conifers, etc. Almost all of the dominant genera of forests in N.E. N. America were evident. The mountains were curiously almost devoid of bird life. 27 Oct. Larry & I drove to the Camargue region & completely encircled it. We approached from Sommières, Lunel to Stes. Maries de la Mer, around the lake to the East, continuing about 5 mi. to the SE, returning up the east side, across the top, & back almost to Stes. Maries before returning to Claret. In spite of the hills + swamps of marshes & mudflats, the most striking thing was how devoid the area was of bird life. 28 Oct. Larry shot a Sciurus vulgaris near Dolgen which he later cleaned & salted & I brought back to London. Also took some photos of erosion caused by logging

MARCH 11 VM took me to Aberdeen airport where I took the 1055 flight to Shetland arriving about 1145. Helen Murphy of Animal Genetics met the plane & drove to Lerwick where I checked into the Queens Hotel. We had lunch, & headed N to see crofts near Ollaberry on the N. main road. We shot at 4 "screws" (stacks of hay with grain attached) with the help of farmers. There were in Gless (SW of Ollaberry) & I was further N. near Oxensetter. We caught the mice as they came out of the 5 screws & got a total of 66; we missed very few. When the stacks were completely cleaned we found nests down the mouse holes & caught some in this way. It was extremely windy & quite cold. After dinner we went to local school where we had lab set up for processing mice. Earlier we also picked off a can of live mice sent by boat from Whalsay Island (caught on March 10). We worked until about 2300 processing mice. There

LIDICKER 1972 March 11 cont. were 2 from Whalsay, the rest being 3 Apodemus. Then we lost 60 from Oldshury. These mice were dead, leaving 4 live ones which gave food & water & kept together with the Apodemus. Then we drove to Scalloway on the West Coast when we went to the home of David Robertson (local artificial insemination officer). We just sampled their freezer & resided there until about 0445. March 12 Didn't get back to Lerwick until about 0100. At 1000 went back to school. For 2 ff Apodemus we took island samples & followed the roads for H. Grineberg. The 3rd one, a S, broke into a museum skin (LZL # 3268). Then I obtained a S and F of the remaining mice (# 3269, 3270). Four mice were thus thrown away (2 dead yesterday & 2 of the 4 kept overnight): F jun. 14.2 g. } dead S 28.6 g. S 15.7 g. "} killed S 19.8 g. After lunch we drove to Scalloway & then out to Tontta Island & West Burra.

We used their help for processing mice & deep freeze for our samples. We processed 37 that Sam had carried on Saturday at Skelpinsay Island, & another 39 while he carried birds on South Hoy Island. Then we visited with Spence's until about 12:30 & it was about 0100 before we got back to the Hotel. March 14 Went to car hire place to transfer car to Helen & my name. Then to Spence's - Henry for contributing Isle of Man Society & picking up frozen mice. Sam & I drove back to Kirkwall via Tingwall on N coast. He leaves for London in the afternoon. I drove back to the hotel, to pick up Helen, after buying some lunch. We headed for Tingwall to catch a boat for Egilsay Island at 11:30. Boatman is Mr. Marsie Farth. Arr. on Egilsay about 1300 after stopping on way at Rousay & (Wyre. A man with a Landrover picked us up at the pier & (Mr. Cragsit) took us to farm on N. end belonging to Mr. Mainland - where they were threshing stacks of oats ("black oats") & traling the straw. We worked with them until about 1600 & caught 19 Mice - all have white bellies & very silky fur. We also killed 3 Rattus norvegicus which ran out of the stacks.

LIDICKER 1972 March 14 cont. back to the pier where Marnie was just coming in. There are no voles on Egilsay according to our hosts, but there are shrews (so judged by their description). It was about 1830 before we got back to Kirkwall. After "high tea" at the hotel we went to Stence's to taste some ice. Actually got to bed by 2330. March 15 Took Helen to airport where she took Loganair flight to N. Ronaldsay. I returned about 1 mi. toward Kirkwall & stopped to look at the study area of Mr. Fred Rose, Biology teacher in Kirkwall, but lives in Deerness. He is studying Orkney voles, Microtus arvalis. There is a high density judging by sign on the banks of a small artificial pond in the general vicinity - which is his study area. I heard a few voles, but didn't see any. Then I drove to Deerness which is a peninsula on the SE end of the mainland connected by a large sandbar to the mainland. I drove around looking for farmers who were mowing "corn" so I could catch mice. Saw 3 Lethrus emarginatus on the way (on the mainland). It was raining slightly, but cleared up later & most of the day was beautiful. Caught about 17 mice in the morning in going through parts of stacks. Then drove to Burray, stopping along the way to eat my lunch. I rode around most of Burray but could find no one picking up grain stacks. Returned to

LIDICKER 1972 March 15 cont. Dearness about #4.40 as I farmer told me - the AM that he would be picking up another stack about then. Caught 18 more mice giving a total of 35 in spite of having to compete with 4 cats for the mice. On the first stack of the morning I lost a few mice close to a dog. Returned to airport just 10 min. too late to meet Helen returning from North Ronaldsay, so returned to hotel - Kirkwall. A few Rattus norvegicus were also seen in some of the grain stacks on Dearness which incidentally were oats (white). After "high tea" we went to Harry to process mice. We didn't get back to Kirkwall until shortly after midnight. Helen had caught over 60 mice from N. Ronaldsay which we did not completely process, some being left for the next day (~15). March 16 About 0900 went to school - Kirkwall to find Mr. Fred Rose. Borrowed 3 Longworth traps from him to try to catch some voles. Drove to Spereis - Harry. I processed 6 more mice from N. Ronaldsay while Helen did blood smears from yesterday. I also set the 3 vole traps and along the road near the house - not very good shots. Then we went to Tingwall again arriving 1130 a caught boat to Egilsay. This time we stopped only at Roway on route. It was a beautiful sunny morning, but shortly after noon the fog came in thick and it got cold.

LIDICKER 1972 March 16 cont. We were met on Egilsay by Mrs. Ronnie Moor and taken to their farm where they were going to thrash several stacks of oats. This was basically the same group as we worked with on the 14th as the 2 families cooperate in the threshing operation. This time we caught 91 mice which added to the 19 from before gave a total of 110 from this island, plus a couple numerous nestlings which were not counted or preserved. One of the 3 stacks we went through contained some nesting [illegible] nests, and 1 pair of chubbs which escaped to a neighbouring stack ("Scaur"). Left island ~ 5/10 and made our way through quite heavy fog back to Tingwall jetty on the mainland. Returned to Kirkwall & later to Spence's for juice-carrying. We finished the N. Ronaldsay mice and did 41 of those from Egilsay. I had nothing in my 3 stacks, so moved them (after dark) further down the road to a grassy area surrounding a small loch. Found a sh-mal owl pellet, but it contained no bones. Got back to hotel about 0035. Only a small amount of vole sign was seen around the lake. March 17 We had tried to get on a Loganair flight to Eday for several days now for this day, but it was booked up. We then arranged to hire a boat to take us (Mr. Nicolson from Shopinsay). He left without us at about 0900 from Kirkwall Harbour, probably because he didn't want to go to Eday - the dense fog which was persisting.

LIDICKER 1972 March 17 cont. So, we went to the air port to try again to get on the flight, but failed. We decided then to try our luck on South Ronaldsay. We drove there & cruised all the roads on all parts of the island looking for farmers moving grain. As it was still very foggy, & quite windy as well, everyone seemed to be spreading manure, plowing, or spraying idios. It was not until 1415 when the sun finally broke through that we succeeded in locating someone. Within 1/2 an hour we had caught 58 mice plus the usual nestlings. Also one R. norvegicus escaped & 4 or 5 large nestlings were found. We also saw two Ornithologists during our driving around the island, both with bad cases of myxomatosis. The farmers at this stack told me that S. Ronaldsay also had "blue rats" - which they admitted were black (probably R. rattus). Decidentally, on Bervane, I talked to a farmer bringing in a wagon load of turnips ("keeps") almost all of which were hollowed out, she said it was rabbits that did done it. Then we drove to Burray, the small island to the north of S. Ronaldsay, & continued our search. We finally found a farmer pitching a stack of barley on to a wagon. We got there only a few minutes before he quit and managed to catch 4 mice. He said that rats were present on Burray but not common. We continued to search Burray until 1550 when we had covered it all. Returned to Kirkwall for early "lighter" & then on to Harray. I checked my 3 Longworth text.

DICKEN 1972 March 17 cont. Caught nothing, & moved then to two or better locations nearby. Killed remaining mice from @gilsey. Froze all the skulls for skeletons & skinning later (88+99). Thrown away: 1 ad. ♀ (had kind in carrying case) } 8 juv. 88 22 13 .. ♂♀ Also 1 ad. ♂ & 1 ad ♀ were given to Sheila Spencer. Then we processed 55 of the Salk Ronaldsay mice & the 4 from Burry. Three dead mice from S.Ronaldsay were thrown away: 1 ♂ & 2♀ (1 of the latter had a white band on her tail). We visited for several hours with the Spencers & didn't get to bed until after 2 Am. March 18 Went to Spence's to take care of yesterday's blood samples & to check our gear. I kicked off my 3 trip - again caught nothing. We left Spencer about 1130 (Albert & Sheila Spencer, Nisthouse, Harray, Ordway). Took our samples to freezer in hotel & then drove to Durness to return trip to Mr. Fred Rose (& to visit with him & wife). They are from the Glasgow area, & have been in Orkney about 5 years; they also spent many years in Nigeria. Address: Schoolhouse, Durness, Orkney. Arrived there at 1245 & left ~ 1335. Returned to hotel & checked out & then went to airport arriving about 1430. We were very uncertain whether we would get off or not because of the heavy fog. No BEA plane had gotten in for several days, & now had been to Shetland for 4 days. We

We drove directly to Crail (via St. Andrews) & to harbor where we loaded our gear on the small fishing boat (lobster) belonging to Mr. Jimmy Smith (Cruid 484). Left for Islay at May 1005. It was moderately rough going over, but a pleasant trip. It tooks a little over 1 hour. On the Island we moved in with Graham & Della Thiggs in the small house rented by the Royal Free Hospital for San Beny's research on Mus. Graham is a post-graduate student del Sam's. Bird life is spectacular; several hawks on. After lunch we helped Graham count 185 Longbilled traps on the entire island. This was the start of a camera taking & trapping list too. Mike set an additional 15 traps around the house. Red-lits are moderately common on the island, quite a few we saw; myxomatosis has arrived on the island & greatly reduced the red-lits from Javanian levels. After setting, walked and isled, especially along W. cliffs where many birds are beginning to nest. Only the sheep were seen to be nibbling at eggs. Weather: -- sunny with mod. winds.

On grey sand seen new Ward Lickell (+ also see this yesterday). April 25 Graham got up early + ran round the traps before breakfast. Then we ran the rest finishing at 1405. Caught a total of 111. Helen got about 3 more blood samples. Weather: mostly clear with brisk westerly winds, switching to southerly late afternoon. Quite warm - sun and mid-day.

Hi's boat, "The Breadwinner", came twice today -- once about 1105 + once about 1600. He brought out 3 people from The Nature Conservancy who are involved in the project to reduce the number of Herring Gulls breeding on the Island.

When I look for nest is killed, it is quickly removed, so mate will have no inhibitions about coming into incubate it can also be prevented. The figure they will start is 2 to 3 weeks and this it will take 10-12 days. They have not solved the problem of what to do with the [illegible] 10,600 chickens they hope to have.

George Halbeck (sp?), a student of Carlson at Durham thinks there are at least 20,000 pairs of Herring Gulls on the island. April 27 Gordon was out running dogs and did not return for breakfast so I went out to find him and helped him finish the central relief part of the line. We also took time to have a cup of coffee at the lighthouse to climb the lighthouse tower. The light is of the "parfis" type and has a handle just like a large lantern.

LIDICKER 1972 April 27 cont. Decided to photograph puffins. Without much effort I managed to get within 2 m. of a small group sitting on the edge of the rear cliffs. Weather: alternating sunny & overcast, with frequent cold windy periods. The fifth was too rough for Jimmy Swi. H. to come out even though Sam Berry was due to come out for the day. He sent a message to the lighthouse that he would come tomorrow instead. Both Harris + LBB gulls seemed noticeably more attentive today - wheeling & screaming overhead & dropping back into position more quickly. We found no more nests with eggs, but George did find a few. We found 1 H.G. which had been narcotized by the Nature Conservancy group in a trial of the poison. It was staggering, weaving back & forth with its eyes closed. It did not respond until poked & then flapped & tumbled weakly, soon settling down again. We also found a Kittiwake killed in the mud of a small freshwater pond on the top of the island. One wing looked as though it was supposed to be broken. We figured it was knocked down by an aerial collision. We released into the landing area on the E. side. It soon off flopping its one good wing. Before lunch we completed work of the gullkin on the S side.

We started right in to the autopsies, working from 1815 to 1945. Then we had dinner. Afterwards I took a shower. Graham & Della went off to the lighthouse for a weekly card game. April 28 Weather: mostly overcast with strong SW winds increasing during day; few showers. After breakfast we started mowing traps grid & picking up all traps. Helen worked with Graham & I so she had already gotten more than enough blood samples. At 1130 we tried to call Jimmy Smith, the boatman, to tell him we wanted to come off the island but got no answer. At 1230 we were able to try again when we saw his boat about 1/3 of the way across. Helen & I then left Graham on the tugline so we could return to place for leaving. The boat came into the S. landing which was sheltered. Jimmy did not know of the forecast for gale winds & 8 visibility this afternoon, but agreed to stay until 3 pm. Sam Berry was on board along with a psychologist from St. Andrews (Lecturer - Mel Goodale sp? ). They were going to do some behavioral testing on the May mice. There was also a photographer from The Sunday Times (Mike Ward) who wanted gull photos & a gull parasitologist from Dundee. We had lunch at 1400 & went to the boat at 1500. It was a rough wet trip back to Craig. Mike Ward gave Helen & I a ride to the Edinburgh airport where we caught a

LIDJICKEN 1973 April 28 cont. First that he tracks of ORV's around every single Lavre shore. This is also a large completely dark area near the grid lot. It is used as a camping & staging area for the ORV's clubs. Saw I small gopher snake on tracked grid while setting dogs there. This seems to be that the same amount of small animal remains on this plot is on the control - perhaps even slightly more. Put my tent & cooked dinner after dark. It was very windy all day but this did down completely at night. April 29 Got 0530 to run trip. Terri Jucks & Peter Wood[illegible] arrived from Clive Lake about 0600, to help us. Checked tracked grid first & the control. Finished by 0800. All cats were marked, weighed & splained. Cats: tracked grid - Paragryllus formosus[illegible] - 1 P. longimembris - 1 D: [illegible] mariani - 4 control grid - D: [illegible] mariani - 3 P. longimembris - 1 Of the 10 animals only 1 of D. mariani from the control grid was marked from the last drifting in March. Of the 3 of mariani on the first grid 2 had tests not released (had scarred flighty & big clutches) & 1 was partially desc. On the control, 2 of 3 had clearly loose tests.

LIDICKER 1973 April 29 cont. Both grids were electing, but the one on the first grid seemed further along & my line has been finished About 10-11:30 he checked both lines again to cloud trips. The purpose of this was to see if we could catch any ground squirrels before it got too hot. We did have 1 Spermophilus leucurus in the tracked grid. We also got a number of Uta stansburiana. On both grids we caught a marked desert tortoises 1 on tracked & 2 on control. Sev. additional tortoises were spotted crossing the road & were helped across. Carrivore tracks seen frequently on both grids. Actually it did not last up too much today but remained very windy & cool. After lunch we went briefly with Rardsberg for a few groceries. From 5-7 (hour or daylight saving time) we went to tracked both grids. We found that 1 trap too many had been set on the tracked grid Weather - continued cool, latter cold & very windy. We had dinner in a gale & dust storm. Large bank of clouds seen across the Tetelopi's. April 30 The strong wind kept buffeting us until about 0230. Then it calmed down & remained so until ~ 0630. We got up at 0600 & checked both grids. Weather: quite cold and partly cloudy. There was a very large dark cloud off to south of Lake Koskaya. The undertail of the car suggested that a few dust if rain fell during

LIDICKER 1973 Apr 30 cont. the night. Cotel was similar to last night in spite of the very strong wind for most of the light. Tracked grid: Purpurthus penicillatus - 1st caught yesterday + 1 grow. P. longimmbrio - 1 D. desertus mariani - 3 (all mature) Control grid: P. longimmbrio = 1 (mature) D. mariani - 3 (1 new + 2 mature.) Finished ~ 0745 After lunch went to walked until 1 camp looking for a favorable study site which is more comparable to the tracked grid, particularly with respect to soil texture. All of the area to the south is trashed to some extent but much of it are slightly so, so hardly could be used. Some of the area, especially toward the Rand Mtns., is now gravelly to rocky. We noticed that the 8's D. mariani readily retreated their tents from the section, so care must be exercised in interpreting non-control 8's. At 1100 we left for a drive to see some areas recommended to us by Kristin Barry. We drove back to Cel 1. 14 & then S over Neversia Rd. to California City. Then on to the Rantahy Mojave Rd which runs along the SE side of the Rand Mtns. From this we turned downed the mountains on Buckweld Rd. In the foothills there is a

LIDICKER 1973 Apr 30 cont. Large "pit" of camping strategy are used by the ORV club. We surveyed the extensive damage, took a few photos, & followed the road as it looped off into the nts & back to R-M Rd. We returned to California City for water & a few groceries. Then had been scattered showers during the night & we could see evidence of it from Kofa Dry Lake to Calif. City. Several other squabbles could be seen in the distance, especially to the N. We saw quite a few desert tortoises in our drive & carried them off the roads. Along Naval Air Rd., N of Calif. City & again in the Road Mtns. we took photos of them. We drove west of Calif. City to Calif. 14 & went N to Radrock Canyon, stopping for gas near the jet. With the Red Hills Rd. Then we drove up the Canyon lead to Dove Spring. Almost the entire canyon has been ruined by ORV's. The destruction is hard to believe. We took a number of photos here too. It was just cloudy with a few drops of rain now & then, & cold & windy. The wind for us from the west. About 1600 struck back to camp, arriving about 1630. We immediately set out to build a meat grids. Traps had been left open all day. An arched grid caught: P. longimembrus - 1 specimen from this arm in arm trap. Phemogulus mojavensis - 1 Ute - 1

LIDICKER 1973 April 30 cont. 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.

LIDICKER 1973 Kensington Calif. (108 Willar Lane) May 18 1855 (54° F.) 1 CL: chickadee hanging from post of hummingbird feeder, + drank from it. This is the first first observation of a bird hanging from the post rather than perching on it & is thus the 1st recorded incidence of CL: chickadee near of this feeder since March 18. And this is in spite of the [illegible] continuous presence of chickadees in the area during this interval. May 23 1943 (56° F.) Sev. CL: chickadees in yard. One went to hummingbird feeder, perched on post + drank twice. Brooks Island June 22 Left from LSB about 0845 with: Fred McCollum, Steve Arnold, Lynne Hovet, Agatha Dill, & Virginia Maiorana. We went to the Ford Plant - to pick up the boat. Arrived on the island about 10:30 met the new caretaker, Mr. Al Betancourt who invited us to have coffee with him before we started to work. It was overcast & cool until about 1100 when it began to clear up. The rest of the day was clear & quite warm. About 0100 the usual summer west wind began to blow. We walked around most of the island hunting & catching garter snakes & a few alligator lizards. We also, naturally, checked out Micrurus sign & Fred made check of various counts with a 5 ft.

LICKER 1973 22 June cont. Aluminum rod which he throws out in a twisting manner. After counting 5 feet, he moves the rod in a straight line (1 end of the rod is marked with an X) so as to count an additional 5 feet. Voles are very abundant as expected for this time of year. Density varied from 40-50/acre on the top of the island to ~140 on the S. beach, 200 on the W. beach, and 250 on N. end and E. side. We saw a herd about 3 miles in the morning especially. Also in flipping out boards & rocks for traps we saw lots of mice & vole nests. We actually caught 5 mice (all adults): 1 jr. ♀ (3 lbs old) w/ white chin spot which Dyke thought red chin for his colony 3 yr. ol ♂♂ (5-7 lbs old) little test. 200 deg. 1 adl. ♂ (2+ mos old); TND also & as with the rest of them are too white to understand. Near the spring on the E. side we found a fully dead Rattus norvegicus (no obvious indication of mortality factor). At Buttercreek said that 6 pairs of Canada Geese nested this year, but no eggs were raised successfully. One brood got eaten by a shark. He also reported that hard spraying of pesticide for grain oats is still continuing. He noticed that the bird feeders were all empty this time. We left the island about 16:05 with Al insisting on having us in. We arrived at the Ford Plant at

LIDICKER 1973 1645 I returned the coast. Birds seen on or around the island: Brown Pelican - 15+ Belt. Cr. Night Heron - 15+ (morning - backings on E side + fading on mud flats = 10m) Melland - 20+ Less Scamp - ( Song Scotr - 30+ Red R. Hawk - 1 (being harassed by a gull) Celly Devil - 20+ (including 1+ birds of clut 12) Phoenot - 15+ Killdeer - 15+ (including 1 yq. seen) Bllk Gallin Glover - 14 Ruddy (?) Turnstone - 1 Willot - 30+ Wm: land. poop - 1 Western Bull - many Hermann's Bull - 1 Caspian Tern - 40+ (many on headland very out getty) Redwing - 30+ Hen Firecl - cloud Aw. Goldfinch - 12+ Wh-cr. Sparrow - common Song Sp. - cloud Noticed that where old channel cuts across fill & jetty, a nice Salicomic must be going up behind some low dunes evidently just thin to completely close channel. Two small ponds we also noticed that Sandrasia were were also created in this way about 1/2th foot water parts.

LIDICKER 1974 Feb. 11 cont. when kit went to feeder & drank. Hummer returned & was drinking when a was-kit came & dislodged the hummer who locked off. Was-kit took ~3 sips. In a few moments it came back, & a limit thrush flew close by the feeder but the was-kit did not leave. (0830) - 46° F & overcast. - Was-kit again to feeder momentarily. (0857) - was-kit to feeder & pair of chickadees is nearby lunch. One chickadee went on and the other acted as if it wanted to go to the feeder that was inhibited by the was-kit in the bush nearby. The was-kit went to the feeder once more, then the chickadee did, then the 2nd chickadee & the was-kit moved from time. A hummer came in toward the end of this action and hovered in an agitated fashion 3 or 4 ft. away, but did not attack. When the was-kit finally left, the hummer fed (Anne, 8?), and the limit Thrush flew by quite close but the hummer did not leave. The limit thrush seemed to chase a was-kit by flying in its direction several times, but pursuit was not close and the was-kit seemed to ignore the thrush. Feb. 12 (0930) 46° F. Two was-kits taking turns at the feeder, each went twice & took up to 5 sips each time. At 8 Anne H. watched the end of this session, but stayed ~10 ft. away.

LIDICKER 1974 Orinda Contra Costa Co., Calif. June 29 - Set out 48 Longworth live traps in order to catch Microtus in O.P. Pearson's "Backyard", i.e., across the creek from his house. Set from ~1700-1930. Sunny, hot day. Used oatmeal for bait but added small chunk of carrot to every other trap. Rolled corn was used for pre-baiting. Sign scarce, but every trap was set in a runway which looked hopeful. In a few cases definitely fresh cuttings or droppings were noted. June 30 Picked up all traps 0930-1130. 7 Mice marked as carrot or non-carrot when picked up. Catch: Peromyscus truei - 1 on a non-carrot trap; released. Microtus californicus - 8 + 1 trap which contained one M was tipped on its side and was gone. 7 of the 9 M. traps were marked as "carrot" but when traps were checked in animal room later, 2 of these had no sign of a carrot chunk; 2 am not sure whether the traps were incorrectly designated or the carrot piece was completely eaten. .. only 5/19 were definitely carrot-baited. Weather: cool night & mostly overcast in AM. Mice were fed by research of Rosamond Bowen.

L1 DICKEN 1974 Kensington, Col 57. (108 Willow Lane) August 18 - 1600 (75° F.) - 1 chicken observed feeding at hummingbird feeder; took 4 sips. This is the first observation of this behavior since before the breeding season (last obs. of non-humming at feeder was on April 1). Feeder was maintained during this interval, but then were extensive periods when I was out of town & observations could not be made. Oct. 25 (1254) - NIL reports 1 chicken at feeder; took sips by perching on spout. Oct. 27 - 0940, mostly overcast, rain during the lunch, 55° F. Flock of chickens + 1 Townsend's Warbler = lochyked. One chicken went to feeder, sat on spout & took sips. It chased an Anna H. away when it went to the feeder. Another chicken took a sip from in the feeder, but did not go to it. 1110, mostly overcast, 63° F. Chickens came to feeder & hovered 3 times with short nest & where NIL saw - chickens looking for the feeder when it was removed for filling. Although I cannot find my record of it, the feeder must have been discontinued shortly after this so no further observations were recorded.

LIDICKER 1974 Baja California Trip. 9 Dec. to 19 Dec. 9 Dec. Left Berkeley at 0930 with Pete Eschrich, Roly Kopald & Larry Riggs in MV2 camper truck. In Tracy we stopped at Long bait as a feed store. Then we continued down I-5. It was very cold & foggy (mostly light) most of the way. We stopped for dinner just N. of Los Angeles (Castaic). Then we went on to San Diego. We arrived at the house rented by the Caled-Calif IBP program near the campus of San Diego St. Univ. (5615 Hardy Ave). B: 11 Glenn made the arrangements for us over there to meet us. We arranged with him & Dave Bradford (former MV2 student) to meet the 5th member of our party Dave Krohne in Tijuana on Weds. 11 Dec.

LIDICKER 1974 10 Dec. After breakfast drove to downtown San Diego to get mexican insurance & tourist cards. Then headed for Tecate on Calif. 94. Birds noted on this stretch: mockingbird sitting Red H. Hawk Cooper's Hawk In Tecate we stopped to buy some ceviche at the hotel next on the highway to Mexicali. We were looking for a locality where Chester Lamb caught Mircus californicus in 1927. It was 16 mi. by rd. S of Tecate and then about 2 mi. N on a diminutive road = N. end Nachogueno Valley, 3400 ft. At 16 mi. by rd., E we found a dirt road going N so we took it a west 2 mi. & which point we came to a dry stream bed & an abandoned house. There were a few scattered willows along the creek bottom & a small grove of oak trees. A little further on were 3 small meadows - quick succession. We stopped for lunch beyond the third & then explored the creek bed for quite a way. There were a few additional willows but no brush or reeds & of course no water even though there had been a lot of rain in the past few weeks. We helped the rancher from the third house start his settled truck. He said his well was 40 ft. deep & it was only a few rods from the stream course. We decided to check the next valley to the east, so we took a bad dirt track which runs off Hwy, parallel to the main highway - 1 mi. from it over miles west until we came to another dirt road going N.NW along the next

LIDICKER 1974 10Dec cont. Valley. We drove up this year 1 large page & stopped about 1 mi. further to camp away the rocks on the valley floor. This location is: 20 mi. E, 1 mi. S Teacote, 1000 m. Of around places the valley widens out and there is a meadow that all are heavily overgrown. We can imagine that these meadows and stream courses could have had corn sowing for centuries in the past but not now. There is no willow or ashby or of corn so flowing water. Started getting traps in a hurry about 1530. I met large collapsh. Shannon's baited with mixed chicken scratch, crimped oats, oat meal & small piece of potato. Set 15 along stream course & 5 near on edge of chestnut. The rest & more - only got caught 4 11 out comes the overgrown meadows of 50 lb. indians. Long Ripp & 2 them out & 50th sets as it got dark. Gopher sign is abundant. Near Spanish: I was checking about way out of Teacote, a hotcat along the dirt road, parallel to the highway & a cogon - the meadow & we approached [illegible] Birds see since Teacote: Red-t. Hawk - nr. Cat. f. Quail - nr., every sun and crop. Sands Jay - nr. Red sk. Flicker Buck-dit (Larry Ripp) Lammer's Goldpick - nr5 W. Kingbird W. Bluebird.

LIDICKER 1974 10 Dec. cont. A large owl flew out of one of the oak trees as we parked our camper. At 8 am, we took the temperature - it was 26°F. At the other valley (Nackoguro?) we heard cuttings in the willows of leaves & strips. The strips were cut by a mudcat & not a rabbit. Although it was freezing cold, we checked as many of our traps as we could find (2100-2230). I had 1 Neotoma lepida from a rocky outcrop & 2 D. jackson's agilis from the "meadow." It was 22°F at 2230. Very cold night. I slept in tent & got very little sleep. Having Porcupine calling during nite. Water in camper sink frozen in morning. 11 Dec Got up ~ 0645 Checked & picked off all traps except gopher ones before breakfast. I had 1 more D. agilis from the edge of chapland & 4 Peromyscus maniculatus from along the side of the creek. Gopher ants picked off about 200 - 2 were caught, 1 runner was plugged & the 4th we never did find. We set up our lab & processed 8 animals, taking blood samples, kidney & liver tissues, & then skinning. The blood samples were centrifuged, the red cells rinsed in saline & red fraction protein centrifuged & liquid N2. We finally left our campsite about 1400. Birds noted around camp today: Starling, Oregon Junco - zero fled. Lammes Goldfinch - seen, fled.

Lichten 1974 11 Dec. cont. Calif. Quail, W. Bluebird - corn. Raven - 2 , Flicker Brown's Bluebird, etc. On way to main highway we noted that we were 1.2 mi. N of the ranch, 1.8 mi. to the dirt rd. running parallel to the highway & 2.6 mi. to the highway. From this get to the road we went off the highway on gravelly less 0.9 mi. & 2.7 mi. to Canada del Sol development to N of Highway. This latter turnoff, on calculation is ~76 mi. by rd. from Tecate & way in the other C. lead toward W = 1927, 4.9 mi. from whr we joined the highway to Loreto. We went on to Tecate & then Tijuanas. Here we changed some way & continued on the lower toll highway toward Ensenada. The sunset as we were driving south. Additional birds noted between cant & the coast: Roadrunner (various W of Tecate). Arrived or broke at La Salina at dusk. Then we met Dave Bradford, Dave Krohn, & Bill Glanz as we had arranged. We drove N across the Arroyo Murrieta & found a road down into salt works - easy to coast. This is just E of the toll highway 10 but W of the old Highway no. 1. Although it was completely dark, we all saw and some frogs in the marshes. I set out 17 Eg. coll., Shrikes = the Salicorne & Dysiticlis; then I drove into some large clumps of "spike grass" & all of this, to define fresh Microtus signs.

At about 14:00 we had lunch & then set out to cut traps. Dave B, Dave K, Bob K & B. Sieng took the car back toward Manadero to set in edge of cultivated fields. The rest I set and camp. I set 34 leg coll Shrews in a small 2 shallow arroyos running to bluff. On the first 2 feet 18 traps filled with mixed seeds. This arroyo was filled with brush with lots of Cueva o zea grass. Nestamine sign was abundant. Also saw Sylvi/lyreus droppings & locally Microtus as well. The next gulch was slightly wastier & had one pond of water & a few clumps of a Phragmites-like grass. Set 16 traps here located with seed mixture mixed with desert litter. Definite Microtus sign here including foot gnawish droppings.

LIDICKER 1974 Dec. 13 cont. Then we headed south. Found a DOR 6th N. Off 7 mi. N Ejido Urupen and saw a Sparganum buckling 7 mi. N. of San Vicente. At 2 mi. N Ejido Urupen saw an area of "spike grass" which may have Microtusus in it. At San Vicente we got gas & water. About 1 mi. S of the turnoff to the Meling River, we took an inconspicuous road toward the coast. This is at a very small village called San Telmo de Albojo. The road parallels the bed of the San Telmo Arroyo. We were looking for possible Microtus habitats. But I cross the river bed was dry, & the plants were mostly deaded off. After going about 6 mi. we turned (just just when road crosses the arroyo & one can see the ocean about miles away) and drove back about a mile to camp in the shelter of some large Rhus "trees". I set out at 20 by, collecting skins as soon the first of the valley where the soil was quite sandy. The area had been burned during that extremely wet few years. There was an abundance of burrows, many big distinctly fresh. I just took mining by my foot, knowing that seemed to be those of a large D:footmouse. Then I set 5 more on the camp side (N) of the road where the soil was darker, less sandy, & much rockier. After dinner we shined until 230. Then I checked my traps. In the line of 20 I had only 1 Peromyscus sp. + 1 spring trap. I also saw

LIDICKER 1974 Dec. 13 cont. Barongius or Grayshanks. In my study line I had 3 D'jokongs, 2 Barons + 1 Baricwhites, Since all traps were full, I decided on the ender line. Birds seen between mountains and near camp included: Sterling, Mt. Bluebird, Horned Lark (50+), Rest of Red-t. Hawk, W. King bird, Meadowlarks in camp: Wh. crowned Sparrow, Cat: f. Quail? Dec. 14 Got up at 6.45 and could hear the surf at the ocean. The air was very damp and there was a thin fog. The sound blazes. Picked up my remaining trip lines but only 1 obtained Barongians. After breakfast we procced to animals to Ancho camp about 1300. Birds seen and camp: Dudee's Walker - 15+ Wh. cr. Sparrow - sev. Brown Tanager - sev. Mt. Bluebird - sev. I still think there must be a large species of chilo it is really one if we did not catch any. Then back to the main road and then N. to the jet with the rd. to San Telmo, Mileage from camp to San Telmo de Alajo in about 4½ mi. On the rd. to San Telmo we noticed an area of spike grass a wildcat 4.8 mi. from th stream. 11.8 mi. beyond San Telmo is the road to Mike's Sky Ranch. We continued on toward the Meling Ranch. About [illegible] 15 mi. from San Telmo we saw an Atmospherophiles. 3.7 mi. further we took photo f

Lodden 1974 14 Dec. cont. scenery. About 12 miles after Meling Ranch, we saw the first division pipe. About 4 1/2 miles further we came to the park entrance. Shortly before 12:30 we thought we saw a chicken vulture across the road. On the way up the mountain we identified four birds but twice saw a large falcon at a distance too great to identify for sure. Also saw Red-tailed Hawks. The worker at the Park entrance refused to let us in on the grounds that he was closing the park until Dec. 27. We argued with him but he would not give in. We were very anxious to get to Vallecitos meadows to look for Microtus. As it was close 4 pm we turned back a few hundred yards and camped among the Jeffrey pines. There if no set trails and camp (Corona de Arroyo, 7 1/3 mi. E Meling Ranch, 6400 ft.) - the elev. in existing from info. "Camping & Climbing in Baja" by John Robinson. A topo map which seem to have significant low elevation; 33 mi. ground The other 4 drove down to Oak Crossing, 5.6 mi. E Meling Ranch, 5240 ft. This best looking 1/2 hour trail leads to S to Oak Rest area or onto La Grulla, 1/2 and 20 ly. away. Sherman saw camp at bottom of dry creek bed where there was some settling clumps of willows. After dinner we processed more audio. Dec. 15 It got below freezing during the night but it was not so cold on the night E of Tecate. Checked my traps but left them out. Caught only 1 Newtson's 1/2

LUDERSK 1974 Dec, 15 cont. Personages trained: The work was not later accidentally released (in the evening) by Pete E. when he was trying to hand [illegible] chicken & canisters of chocolate another type it.

Then we continued N. toward Valle de la Trinidad. It is ~18 1/2 mi. from the turnoff to Mike's. S 1/2 mi. W of the Sky Ranch we saw a lookout from the road in front of us - it was an excellent view. The road is quite passable, after Rancho San Antonio (~12.5 mi. from Mike's) the country opens up a bit +

After dinner we returned to process animals when Bradford & Blang came back as they were not able to get gas in Col. Cardenas. They helped us skin a skunk midnight and put some white bird traps on the rocky slopes.

LIDICKER 1974 Dec. 15 cont. About at midnight, I checked my wrist's dog. Dog I was closed down. Finally got to bed ~0030. Dec. 16 Up at 0700. Picked up truck. Caught 5 lizards + Paraguayas armiceras + several strong tortoises + lots of wild turkeys. Dave & Billy stayed until about 1000. The released most of the Paraguayas, I took both an auxiliary gas tank including two small double carbores. Then they headed for Los Angeles and San Diego respectively. We broke camp after processing some animals at about noon. We drove into Colonia Cardona in Trinidad Valley + filled one of our auxiliary gas tanks on the truck. They did not have "Permax Extra" so we settled for the four octane stuff. The road descends gradually from an canyon into Valle de la Trinidad. Much of the valley is agricultural now. The road E of town is being graded in preparation for paving. Our camp was almost devoid of birds. Peter thought he heard a Rhea + other is close. On the way into town we saw Mt. Blanching + a Laggard Striker. Then we turned S out of El Valle de la Trinidad on the road to Ensencado. The road climbs through some rugged land from mountains & then out on a large plain (Llano de Rodos). This plain is covered with scrub juniper trees. There are striking views of the Sierra Juarez & Sierra San Pedro Martir. About 30 mi. by rd from Col. Cardona, Peter saw a Moringa Dove - still in the

LIDICKER. 1974 16 Dec, cont Just one seen on this trip so far. The road is untrammeled and paved. Eventually we descended into Valle San Rafael which is almost solid agricultural fields. It is surrounded by hills with cactus and desert scrub. It is not Lony Sooma vegetation. And the soil is quite sandy & the shrubs well spaced. Before this the juniper clumps gave way to rocky hills & different vegetation. Along this road, we also noted Red-tailed Hawk, Kestrel & Road-runner. We proceeded out from Valle San Rafael heading for Rancho Sanger de Cristo, type locality for Microtus californicus grinnelli and also a locality for Dielorus varians trindatensis. After several inquiries at a roadside we took the trip off to the N of the highway, we returned to the SE edge of the valley & found Rancho Sanger de Cristo nestled almost invisibly behind a spur of a hill. While standing in the Valle we came upon a road with a artificial pond, a how we saw: Cott-tot, Doves-3, Ducks (one & 2 tiny), Canvasback - 17, Bufflehead - 14 Pied bt Grebe, Killdeer, etc. Rancho Sanger de Cristo has some beautiful spring meadows along a stream, but they are heavily over-grazed. We walked in to the south lower & 2 mile area and we could come into range & close up. One short section of meadow was fenced & although stock had clearly been in it, the grass was much taller. We

LIDICKEN 1974 Dec. 16 cont. searched carefully throughout this sector for any sign of microrus and found some. We parked the car in the farmyard, I went out to collect Stenma's traps from the mud buildings and strike your camps. There was no definite microrus sign but it seemed the most likely place. Then I set 20 traps in the denser scrub -- 10 going up the hill behind the mud & 10 cam on the flat or top. It was almost completely dark by the time I finished hand together (5) collecting while finishing the trophies. We were invited to have cafe with the researchers over this so we spent about an hour chatting with them. We showed them pictures of microrus and they indicated they were present. However, they were pretty vague about it but said our yard did not seem to have the small expectation was not there. mounds too well. AFTER dinner, processed more animals. About 1100, I checked my 20 "microrus traps" caught only 2 Reithrodontomys megalotis on which I released. We did not get to bed until about 0100. Dec. 17 Got up @ 0645. Checked "microrus-traps" & left them out. Got only 1 Reithro. in the one trap & I had caught & released one last night. Piled up traps in descent. On slope had 6 D. merriami. On top: 5 D. merriami, 1 D. azilis & 2 Peromyscus maniculatus. Saw pack pollut on top. All 5 of us caught a total of 47 animals, but no microrus. It seems look like.

Then we proceeded N on Lighen 1 (iron-foll road) to when it crosses Arroyo Martinez. The village of El Mission is on the N. edge of the arroyo on e: the side of the highway. We drilled off into the arroyo (S. side) to camp & set traps for Microtars. By this time it was about 1600. but immediately began to find Microtars signs, quite a bit staining fresh, in various places on the valley floor. One of the best places for - Dystichilis and a hard - pan Sclerocoma mixed in + "spike grass" clumps scattered around. Some of signs were even about a few feet above the valley bottom on the S edge when it was growing moderately (Eschscholzia took here). I set out 34 by colly. sh. - and spike grass, in Dystichilis, etc. (6 of them was in a slightly drier or better drained area, but still looking good for M.).

LIDICKEN 1974 Dec. 17 cont. There was too much wind to have quite the confidence of catching a pair of Microros. After dinner we discussed coming up over our trip lines about 1130-1200. Catch - nothing. Dec. 18 Got my 0645 & checked on traps. Catch - NOTHING! So we left on trap out. I moved 3 of the 6 J hook in the brush over to the edge of a swampy area with tall reeds & definite fowl Microros signs. Then Roy & I set out a box of 25 longwithe trap along the edge of this swampy area. Almost all of them were set in muckings. All these traps plus the ones I set last night were baited with mixed seed with a little peanut butter mixed in. Then we discussed coming up early morning. About 12-12:30 we packed up our camp. Finally we picked up our trip lines. Dave Krohn had 1 Microros. All the rest of us caught nothing. So a few more Microros sightings were in or on the traps. We finally got on the road about 1330.
