Isla Boca Brava, Chirigui Prov., Panama'
9 May 2000 Weather: Partly cloudy all day, rain
beginning ~5:30 and continuing sporadically.
Today was the "day off" so I
slept in and went out at 7:30 to
target net at Central Clearing (5)
for the unbanded DM. I saw
two unb DM's QR'ing together shortly
before I captured one at 11:45, so
I guess there's always more work to
be done. I also caught 2 unb G's,
RRE, PYP & YPY, & the female from former
E-1 nest (though I need to check that
one).
Clint passed his orals today! It
took some elaborate planning to get
to Boca Chica to find this out but
it was worth the trip. I banded
the first bird of the day "OR/Aal" as
Clint was probably waking up.
I continued netting with less success
in the afternoon, & finished The Beak
of the Finch. I didn't find time for
telemetry work today.
