BUBBLE.D.O 1989 Journal 98 Hastings Reservation, Monterey Co., Calif. July 26 (cont) Reset all MC traps this afternoon, including woodpile traps, from 18-1900h. Since RC drift traps are once again saturated, it won't set them for the next 2 days. Today was much cooler - low in the 50's. Since this is Julie's last night (time flies!!), we are having a special dinner and we won't clock traps July 27 0600h - out checking traps on MC (with a lantern) - Clear and calm. Moon is 1/4 full and overhead. Good results for last trap occasion. Picked up all folding Sherman's and opened up all non-folding Sherman's. No RC captured at woodpile. Summary of GRID results: Platformay - 110pts P.bofii - 12' P.tuni - 2' Peregrinus - 7" N.fuscipes - 2" total 34 captures Spent the rest of the day washing clothes, etc (and resting!) Today What we set and baited all traps on GRID WR from 1030-1730h (albeit early so Julie will be ready to leave when her dad comes) and MC drift fence traps finished by 1900h. Today was warmer (low 90's) than previous few days. Julie took off this evening - worked out well! 2220h-out checking traps on WR. Clear, no moon, low 60's. A lot of mice this AM. Toe-clipped all RC (see spreads for #'s). Finished by 2340h and headed home. July 29 0600h - out checking traps on MC drift fences. Clear, low 50's. Started checking traps on GRID WRZ by 0700h. Again, a lot of captures. Finished by 0900h and then bled new RC (1480a) at truck. Released him in good shape by 0930h and returned to lab.
