Hole #1: 4pm occupied; between E1 and F1.
Hole #2: Found yesterday; today occupied at 4pm;
a large (1" diam) hole between K11, K10 on
up hill side.
Hole #3: Some location as #2 generally, but about 3-3' away
in a footprint. At 4 pm not a deep hole, occupied
by med-sized spider. Two shallow holes with
fresh piles of sand were within 2 feet. Yesterday
there we I found an incomplete hole about
# 3 feet from this one, 2' from #2.
Type A
When two spiders in separate small collecting vials
were shaken together + The mouths of the vials held
together, They struggled and the larger ran back
into his vial. Then The smaller crept into the larger's
jaws, touched him, + when the larger reacted, ran back
to his own.
