Nov. 19 Best
and 4 small ones in the first two shelves, then
no more in the next two shelves.
Arturo Tarah, Marino Rumball, and Varguer dropped
into see the Dromiciops. Arturo says there is a big
damo associated with a bigger bamboo in northern
Argentina.
At 4:30 released the Dromiciops on the grid
where we had caught him. I looked him 1 meter up
in a bush, he climbed around for maybe 30 seconds,
then down to the ground and down a hole under a
leg. Then re-baited the entire grid. Found
dead clumps of bamboo with old seed heads at
the river end of rows 3, 5, 7, and 9. Also two other
dead clumps, quite long dead, on which I could
find no seed heads. The grid held: PM
1A also longi 308 F
4G Presump 317 D
8F also longi 592
I picked up my traps, and Arturo put out a new line
in bamboo above and to the left of the cabin (Post Office).
numerous small slugs in the grid showed when I
cleared them out and replaced bait.
I measured a bamboo on the grid = 18 ft. tall. I am sure
it is not the tallest. Must be many up to 20 ft.
