Dusted (PBBB)
Started checking RC drift traps by 0700h - finished by 0900h and returned to lab to collect tissues from new PC (# 1678) and take vaginal smears. Note that traps need to be added to the east RC df. Since we were up late (0100) last night at a social event, we got some sleep this am.
Today was warm (upper 80's) and clear. Skies were hazy from a large (~3,000 acres) fire burning at Big Sur. This afternoon we finished habitat measurements on grid WZ (yah!). Then RC drift fence traps by 1900h (added 10 traps to the east fence) and MC drift fence & selected grid traps by 19:30h.
July 11 0600h - out checking traps on MC drift fences. Clear, low 60's. Results on grid MC traps (P. californicus only):
st.
10,1 1206 σ m 36g scrotal
11,4 1568 δ Sab 29g TVD
11,5 020 φ M 36g Imp.par
10,6 1645 φ Imm 23.5g Null
Started checking RC drift fence traps by 0700h and finished by 0745h.
Again, capture success on east fence > 50% (due to large number of closed traps). Returned to lab to bleed new PC (#1679) and take vaginal smears - Julie spent the rest of the am working on the computer and I went out along French Creek and looked around looking for places to trap. I'm looking for 2 areas to do male and female removals next year &:
10th - We began setting traps on the following 3 transects
I. "Lower Bridge Canyon" - This canyon starts ~200m upstream
