Calionis alpina
2 June Heard display beyond dump, on
road into town.
3 June Two very active displaying 07 over
beach ridge, plus feeding group of 3
(looked like 244 + 107).
4 June Two pairs appear to be localized
on Beach Ridge. Some display, but
no territorial interaction. Another 07
closer to C+G.S. feeding—flew 1/4
mile toward AACS when flushed.
Ditelka's plot—2 ps. have
made this their home. Sitting quietly—
no display. Took a 07 off NE corner
of plot (SN 482)—t=11x6mm—far,
juicy Tipula larva in esophagus.
6 June Foggy, foggy dew. Heard several
07 displaying over Beach Ridge. Couldn't
see much, due to fog. Pitelka's plot—
again 2 ps.—sitting quietly. In Voth
area a flock of about 10 birds was
apparently dispersing. Very active, but
no full display. Birds chasing,
segregating, and regrouping—many
trills and much wing flagging. Too
much going on to keep track of individuals.
In the evening watched a pair
on Beach Ridge, then went to W.
ridge and shot a 07 (SN 486). this
