by again. SNAP seems to have converted itself into an
environmental consulting organizaton, currently doing a
study for Parques Nacionales; Miguel Gross, Gustavo
Iglesias, and a third person doing the work. Gallopin
apparently is going to stay another 2 years in
Colombia.
November 23- Bariloche. Sunny and warm. Tea wth Ghisela,
then Michael.
November 24- Sunny and windy. Drove out to Marful's
and Laguna de los Juncos. Marful's meadow had almost
no Reithrodon sign in it. The habitat along the
railroad track and fences was lush, ungrazed except by
hares, and had some Reithrodon droppings and runways
but not as many as during our study. The lake had
lots of water, coots, grebes, black-necked swans, a
few ducks. The carancho nest had young in it. Saw no
condors.
Dinner with Jorge and Patricia Vallerini.
November 25-Bariloche, sunny and warm. Did owl pellets from
Marful's. Lunch with Werner and Joanne Flueck. They
get enormous numbers of red-deer pellets in their
pellet counts across the lake at Jones' or Tehuel
Malal or Fortin Chacabuco.
November 26- Bariloche. Sunny and warm. At midday went out
to Pampa Quemada to look at the clump of unburned
bamboo that we cut all the live culms off of. There
were thee new shoots coming up, 6 to 8 inches tall;
nothing else. Then drove up to Cerro Catedral and
picnicked about a half-mile up the trail to Refugio
Frey. Several places along the trail with busy-looking
burrows of ?Chelemys?, Amancay lily plants nearby.
Lots of bamboo but none blooming.
Saw Abel Basti on the street; he is still writing
for Manana del Sur. Interested in the kiddie-vehicle
concession out at Estacion Perito Moreno (Laguna de
los Juncos).
November 27- Bariloche. Cloudy and drizzly most of the day.
November 28- Bariloche Partially cloudy and windy. Alberto
Sosa came by, and we took him for a picnic on top of
Cerro Otto. No snow in spite of yesterday's rain in
Bariloche. There is some not-very-fresh tuco activity
at the top.
November 29- Bariloche. Drizzle off and on all day. Went to
Parques in the morning and talked with Chehebar and
Ramilo. Eileen does not yet have permission from
