Journal 97 June 3 6 mi N San José del Cabo, 250°F, Baja Calif. Yesterday Dr. Benson and Tevis caught our first Balantiopteryx plicata in the cave (see their notes). Got a total of about 7D The gopher traps in the cornfield produced one in the morning and two more in the afternoon, all males. I have seen several Dipsosaurus dorsalis, Cnemidophorus maximus, Urosaurus microscutatus here, also a Sceloporus magister on a brush pile. The Dipsosaurus are quite tame and permit one to approach carefully within a foot of them. Last night Tevis caught 2 Coleonyx variegatus in the cave which we originally looked into. Birds here are numerous, with many cardinals, White winged doves, Mexican ground doves. Have also seen Calif jays, hooded oriole, western greatcatcher, 3 pair Calif. Quail, cactus wrens June 4 Same location Caught nothing more in the gopher traps but found that a fox had pulled one trap out and left no more than a few hairs. Tevis has caught 1 Urocyon cinereoargenteus last night and 1 The night before, while Dr. Benson cought 1 last night - all in steel traps. We have been told that shrikes are common.
