DuVal, E.H. 2002 Journal Isla Boca Brava, Chiriqui, Panama 18 March 2002 Netted half-heartedly at WEL 4; I'm not sure the unBDM still controls this area, though Ryan saw one unBDM at WEL 3 this week. YAR + Y-A (DMs) were QRing at WEL 4 as I set the nets this morning. In the afternoon, I did a watch at BRI 2 while Becca & Ryan entered observation data. 3 days in a row of data entry is just too much! The database setup needs to be refined still, but no matter what it seems like data entry just takes too long. Only entering time slots + birds seen took me 20 minutes for one busy watch. Luckily, we can consult with John about this when he & Eileen arrive. No word from them yet - I guess I'll just reserve a cabin & see what happens. 19. March 2002 Today was the day off and my plans to go to Linarte were thwarted by Claus & Mechthild, who took us to 'the beach' - the far beach that connects Isla Boca Brava to Isla Palenke, and then the small spit of sand on the seaward side of Isla Saino, which is adjacent to Linarte.
