June 9 Ladd 1 wren-tit, 1 Bench warner, and 1 spring euphity,
Both birds were back in the clofarsl, not on the edge.
right alternately clear & cloudy, some dew but not as
much as yesterday. Traps lines at 6 a.m. as follows:
Oak woodlnd - no mice, 1 spring euphity
woodon - 3 mice, 1 Pero manic, 2 spring euphity.
clofarsl - 2 Dipo, 2 trues, 1 spring euphity.
Finished installing the garbage cans for acorns. The
system was as follows: put a can 6 feet "north" of
each stake on the trap line, effect in 3 instances.

imaginary can was left there). Then, garbage cans
were put at locations 18 feet "south" of each
trap-line stake, beginning at each end of the trap line
and working toward the middle. Ran out of garbage
cans before reaching the middle, but before that
time there were 3 more imaginary cans placed.
So, a total of 30 cans covering 36 sample spots,
multiply area of one can by 36 to get area sampled
5 p.m. (5) no mice in woodland, clofarsl had
1 wren-tit and 1 spring euphity, and woodon had 3
euphites and 5 or 6 very study merotites. Carl and John
ran this woodon line and saw a lodger between M10 and
M11, which then went down a hole about 20 yards
away. after supper we went back to look for him
and spotted a badger lying on a different mound of
