60th 1985 journal 30. May 22 Chiricahua Mts., Cochise Co, Arizona When we got back from the hike, gain checked 273's net while Lenthly checked 305's net. Nothing in 273's. Kathy found two male red crossbills (#316 & #317) in the net of 305. (this was 12:30 pm) the two were caught between 10:30-12:30, and probably were associated with one another, but this is not certain. The nets we left on until about 3:00 pm- no other wild crossbills were caught. Bird 317 was recorded for both toop and flight call; 316 was silent. We broke camp and headed to Kathy's cabin on Turkey Creek--got there at about 6:00 pm. I went down the road to check for possible trapping sites. Then I pulled tissues from 317 and prepared the one specimen. There were w-t Swifts, Blue-throated Hummingbirds, Canyon Wrens, Whinchat wills, Acorn Woodpeckers and a Sulphur-bellied Flycatcher around the cabin. May 23 Kathy left early this morning to do her census of the Chiricahua Nat'l Mon.
