The upper left corner is now tall canum; the center
left, which was grazed two years ago and mustard
last year is now pure thistle. Only the lower
part (and the knoll) are now pure grass.
In the saddle beyond Steely Hollow where there
has been a nice effusion of mustard in recent years,
there is now a large patch of mustard in bloom,
but the center is all canum in bloom.
June 4 Ran traps at 7 a.m. Sunny. 45 musters, 5 mus,
and 0 Benthos. 9 of the mules were dead, almost all of
these from the bottom 3 rows. The fewest mules were
taken on the knoll where the grass, although short, is
dense and has lots of seeds. Lots of mice in the
pure thistle and pure canum. In the pure thistle is
last year's grass and mustard stems.
