O. P. PEARSON 1949 Subway Cave, Oct. 5 Oct. 4 Left Berkeley with autos 7:30 p.m. last night. Left south of Corning, arrived Subway Cave about 10:30 a.m. Saw no comers or Bay piles (but some droppings) at the bee place south of Old Station. No snow on passes. Found 2 Epteserus in rocks in S branch of Dubuque, but nothing else in Dubuque, Parrish, or the two Ice Caves. The temp in Parrish cave where bats were clustered last winter was 7°c (at noon). Saw a shipmark in Dubuque 75 yds from entrance, and many shipmarks around mouths of all caves. Looked in several houses north of Dubuque but no bats, then Chalk Tunnels along Pat River. Here we found a ♀ and ♂ coy in one tunnel - the ♂ topied and the ♂ awake. The ♀ had sperm in vaginal orifice, but only a little fat. Then went with Danny Shiffler to look for alleged cave across river from Power Plant. Didn't find it but he told me of another one that we located later on the river side of the water pipes where they level off after coming down the steep hill. This is a short, timbered tunnel with no bats but one large porcupine. Nearest trees were a few dogger & yellow-pines (widely scattered) and some broad-leaved trees along the river a quarter mile away.
