At noon put 10 hrs on top of the rocky knoll overlooking the walls.
Also 2 steel traps at shallow ponds in the floor of the walls (some
water flow through these ponds). One of these traps was in a
rat-like hole in the sand bank.
at 2:30 p.m. ran to double explosion mollin lines again:
2 audises and 1 also longi, and ran the single explosion
(forgot if this morning): 2 also longi.
Ran the UNTA grid at 3 p.m.: nothing. A few small birds
scurrying about. Ran the two mollin lines again at
5:30: 2 more also longi in the double explosions
and 1 more in the single explosion. This makes a
total of 12 also longi and 3 Audises today; 3 of the
also longi from the single explosion (= sheep had scent there
exhaled), the rest from the double explosions (obvious rabbits).
Evening wind, no wind, full cover. Saw 1 change
between UNTA and Carcedon Bonte.
April 9 Carcedon Bonte. Very calm clear, ice intact or midwall.
Ran Wallin traps at 7:30 a.m.: one more audison in the
double explosions, nothing in the single explosion. There are
12 traps in the single explosion. The traps on top of the graze
knoll had 2 large dark Zidacums. The 2 water rod sets had
nothing. The line from the grazed wallin up into the scrub
had 2 Elgudentra spp., a Phrygilus, a great-sized
sapsucker. No rabbits seen yet. Haven't heard the tunes since
the first day here (the one I caught is 100 m. away.
