Hastings Reservation
June 7 Put out the three Calburn lines between 3 ad,
6 pm. The chamise is in full bloom. Grass dried
efffect under some oaks. Clutch of day-old quail
at edge of chamise line, parents flushed about 20 yds
into the chamise and the young froze. Weather cloudy
and cool. Scotch mist after dark and still going
at 10 pm. 14 Herons in tall Elymus at block stump at 5:30pm.
June 8 Ran Calburval line at 7 a.m., cloudy. Grass
and chamise drifting net. Three truei, 3 manuculatus,
ad 1 californica. Other lines run at 9:30 am.
One manuculatus in the meadow, one sparrow
at port 15 in the oaks. The live traps, set for mice/rodents,
carught one leathro. Drove up
Drove up to the Arnold place with drifting. All day
was cloudy cold, even drizzly. Did not check traps
in Por, but set more for mice/rodents in the area near
the block stump.
The enclosure in the meadow definitely has
thicker vegetation than outside as than the control
false enclosure. Difference appears to be due to absence
of gophers inside the enclosure (although there seem to
be one unused gopher hole along the west wire, inside).
June 9 Night cloudy, cool, drizzly. Grass + burder thoroughly
net, as yesterday. Calburval flushed 3 truei, 1 calif, 1 manuc.
Meadow line had 3 manuculatus. Oak shed 1 junco.
Took photos of enclosures: #1 enclosure, #2 control,
#3 control, #4 enclosure. #5 in back of Elymus.
All day cloudy & cold. Also photos of oak traps
