Oct. 15. 0310hrs - out for radio-tracking on RC-1. Marco was out this
evening from 2100 to 2400hrs (Oct 14). It's clear, cool (low 60's),
and the moon is < 1/2 full at about 1:30 in the eastern sky.
See Data sheet for record of nights events. Finished at
0630 and moved on to check MC-1 drift fence. 3 captures this
morning: 2 Perognathus, 1 P boylii. In the afternoon Marco &
drove up to the Arnold Cabin. Reset MC-1 drift fences at 1600hrs.
Today was clear, calm, low 80's.
2230hrs - out on RC-1 to radio-track animals. Marco has been here
since 2000hrs. It's clear, calm, upper 60's, moon hasn't risen
yet. See SpP data for details.
Oct 16. At 0100 hrs I set traps at 17 trap stations inorder to get
radio-collars back. Got signals from animals once more
at 0140hrs before heading in. The moon hasn't risen yet
at it is quite cool (low 60's).
0730hrs - Marco went out on RC-1 to check traps and only
get collar from #835. 0900hrs - Both of us checked
MC-1 drift fences: 1 Perognathus & 1 dead California Thrasher.
Marco headed back for Berkeley this a.m.
11030hrs - I set the traps on RC-1 drift lines and about 18
trap stations on the grid to try for the other radio-collars.
1700 hrs - I set traps on MC-1 drift fences. Today was
clear, calm, temp in low 90's.
2100hrs - out checking traps on RC-1. Clear & calm.
Didn't catch any of the collared animals & not
much activity on grid. Note that grid data
not recorded since not all traps set.
