Quest 1948 Journal 104 June 7 Punta Espino, 10 ft, 23°16'N, 110°9'W, Baja California sitting on large granite boulders well in from the sea - neither were obtained. Saw a rattlesnake last evening while setting traps but was unable to procure it. Dr. Benson shot one this morning. June 8 same Location. Minimum temperature last night was 63°F, Temperature at 11:30 AM is 74°F. 48 live traps set last night in dark sand dunes south of camp (same location as previous night) caught 7♂, 6♀ Perognathus arenarius (#325-337 incl). Dr. Benson, Murray, and Lewis spent last night at a ranch near here at which open water is found. They netted and shot some Pipistrellus and Natalis mexicanus. Their live traps set on the rocky slopes caught Perognathus spinatus and one immature Peromyscus eremicus. The weather has been very pleasant here with clear sunny days and a cool breeze off the ocean. Went fishing in the surf the evening before last and catched one small and one large fish, the latter of which we had for breakfast the following morning. Dug some small crabs out of the sand and used them for catching the smallest fishes, using it in turn for bait for the larger ones. Went fishing again last evening but caught nothing, the surf being so rough that the 7 oz weight wouldn't hold the line out.
