Mary's east tunnel,

down Supertune.
June 18
left 4:30 with family, Jack Twenty, and Janet
Anderson for Inverness. Found a new bat colony .5 mi.
SE of Inverness Park in attic of house up steps on NW
corner of side road. In attic were 2 major clusters of
9 Eptesicus with young, with 9 Tadaris mixed in.
Captured most but not all. When approached they tend to
crawl instead of fly. They don't drop into the net like
Cory. Banded 9 Tadarida, 29 adult Eptesicus, 11
young ff and 12 young qq. Kept 2 lactating and
2 pregnant females (most were lactating) and Twenty
kept about 3 Eptesicus and 1 Tadarida. Released
the banded ones on the porch of the house across
the side road.
Then went to see Woody Williams at the old
hotel near the center of Inverness. Found a
colony of Tadarida in the ceiling on the loft floor, south
side, but couldn't get at them. At Jack Twenty
netted Myotis californicus by standing on the roof
and snagging at them as they flew past.
Then to Mr. Selden's barn at 10 pm. One adult
Cory in the cluster of young. Four unbanded young
were banded. Other band numbers of young were
not read. Myotis yuman in garage room.
