where we stopped to look at hammests, we saw Dolobster droppings or tracks. Only one DOR here all day; no armadillo or Dolobster. Saw no cois, no armadillos, no guacados, no rheas, no Dolobsters. A flock of parrots & ducks heading [illegible] towards the Sierra Grande, april 30 night clear, some wind. Trophs caught: ring 19 trophs at 4 km SE Sierra Grande caught 4 Groumpy and 5 Elgyon. 8 at 2 km W caught 1 Groumpy and 1 Elgyon. The Groumpy was in tumbled rock, a perfect Phyllotis darwini place. auntie's 34 trophs caught 1 Groumpy and 11 Elgyons, all out in flat sage (Jarras, Bacubris, Chinguiragua, and other spring lakes). The Groumpy then near a thorn wood, then 2 steel trophs caught 1 Choumpy, no fresh droppings. Drove to Hotel Rayentay in Troph by way of Puerto Urdyn. Odds of truck traffic on the paved coast highway. One speckled here. Stopped & looked twice to skin about 10 km S of the Chiribut border. Auntie put about 10 museum specials and 2 steel trophs in some denser bunchgrass near the road, where there were guinea pig droppings. When we left, there was one alboron in the trophs. around Troph 4 o'clock. Note that in crossing almost all of South America at the latitude of Bariloche (on Route 23) in a season of unusual rain (muddy roads etc), since Pitavirgen we have not seen any running water or clear lakes with potable water; only muddy ditches along the road and muddy saline ponds in the middle of scrub.
