#1 was checked - it has not changed since
it was first located - lone lichen fragments
in bottom - grassy material around sides
#2. Today - an actual cup was present -
a lightish gray mossy low polygon -
over old gravel road. The edges of
the cup were lined with mostly
old grass (gray in color - some brown - but
matched background quite well). The bottom
was covered over - solid layer / Cladonia
which seemed to be packed down - This is
the mat well-made cup / De Pree.

really looked for. Two birds seen chasing
flying south over panel ridge [hoofway]
between Britton's + Voth's Aves.

around Britton's Ave - no sign / 1 pair
was noted. One displaying bird was
found - between panel ridge & the vei
crops.
10 June 3 birds seen feeding at the NNE edge / Deppard
Pond - one bird was hunched - as seen
above + violently chasing one individual
away - while admirably displaying to the
other - usually not causing it to move.
I was seen in this area on the same evening.
