base git. OP and Dane came up to help, and
we caught 4 mice by pancy on the -
and at least 2 more got away.
It was really hot in the sun here - no
fog. The breeze was off and on cool. Saw
a lot of condors, and counted at least 13
roosty in the cliffs (11 with white; 2 dark).
Lots gleyan, al humming birds.
Went jacklighting but saw nothing.
Monday March 12 - [illegible]
The excitement started when the new
moon set last night. I had put out 10 large
collapsin shwa's in rocks + bushes, at 5 across
sandy hill, and 5 lined up acros our tent (3 under
the table). First we heard Dane thrashin around,
and several traps snappin shut. Then we
realized that we were seeing mice dashin by us.
Finally after a few more OP got up to see what
was going on and reported mice were in the pit
across for the tent, where we had thrown some
melon rinds and stale bread. He came back to
bed and after a few more mice had dashed by I
got up to go see the situation. Looking down into
the hollow I could see dozens of mice running wildly
around, nibbling on the edibles and dashing into a shelter
under a rock or into a can. I started watching to
sort out species and realized that there were Atodon
among the Phylloti. So I got OP and I went with hi.
