Saffron flats, Saffrum in full bloom. Anuta also hunt traps through Saffrum. This is essentially the same locality as Glen WSW Cornalla. Evening calm, clear, warm. Mar.1 Cornalla, night calm, not cold. My 80 traps caught 10 Elgyns and 6 Also canarene. The M strops much more successful. Nothing up the hill. Anuta's 40 traps (half MS half shenan) caught 5 Elgyns, all in snags traps. Up on the rocky hill are some good silver sparta mate (azorella). Found a sprouting Saffrum seed while operating a tree cannon. Elkins in morning and set 3 steel traps in two canons. Very little tree signs. Traces cut Saffrum twigs. morning breezy, started out clear but 2/3 cloudy by noon. Set 3 steel traps for tenos at 11 AM and had them by 3 PM. During the day my trap hive caught 4 lizards and 4 abodon canarene. Extended this Saffrum line south about 12 more MS = E 86. Also added 2 rod traps and 2 steel traps to the Rocky Phyllostia line. At Anuta caught 1 also during day + lizards, and put out 13 cage traps baited with apple + oats plus 3 jumps + 20 more MS At 4 PM went to the ranch house. The lady and about 6 kids were home. Set 3 steel traps for quince/pigs in a dense current or mulberry hedge along one side of their extensive garden, which had irrigation channels. Nothing seemed to be bothering the alfalfa. Saw newly planted fruit trees and quinces. afternoon breezy with almost - complete thin overcast.
