smaller. Went back to subway at 7:30 and put
a pine cone under each Cory. Some Cops were flying,
one Ophiacris, semi-torpid was on a cob wall near the
crack where that balled before, and 2 semi-torpid
Myotho seemed to be just emerging from a ceiling crack.
Went back in at 9:15. A few Cory were
flying and a few Myotho? looked like gennalensis,
Many Cory had shifted positions. Caught a copulatory
♂ and ♀ (see 1362). Released the male. Caught
another (or same) active male a few minutes later,
but only removed the mated ♀. Most of those
hanging were torpid, but about a half dozen had
core unfurled or actually flew (total in south core
at this time about ) plus 4 or more in north branch.
During the afternoon saw numerous chipmunks & Collosperm.
Several flocks of genn went over high, heading south.

Car and milk bottles in car froze up.
Went back into cars about 10 a.m. to check up on who moved.
Had put pine cones under all of them at 10:30 p.m. Summary
5 ♀♀ not above cones. Vagina groovy in 2 of these cases.
9 ♂♂ above cones (here had not moved) & had been recorded as

after 10.
4 ♂♂ not above cones (here had moved)
0 ♂♂ with cones, but in left-hand cave 3 ♂♂ had moved
before 10 o'clock but did not move after
