Ribble, D.O. 1989 Journal 360 Hastings Reservation, Monterey Co., Calif. March 30. Reset WR traps from 10-1700h. Added 2 more Western trap boxes and split up many of the pairs of traps. Reset RC and MC drift fence traps by 1800h. Added 6 traps to RC west and 9 traps to RC east fences. 2130h - put checking traps on WR. Clear, calm, low 50's. Planned to conduct dyadic encounters, but didn't catch any males! Did catch 8110, but I collected his tail tip and didn't want to use him; plus, he was wet. Finished checking traps by 2245h and loaded home. March 31 0600h - out checking traps on MC. Clear, calm, low 40's. Started checking traps on RC by 0640h and GRID WR by 0740h. Fewer traps closed this am on GRID WR, only 7. Doubtless due to increase in Westerna traps. Finished checking traps by 0915h and went into town for a few supplies. Returned to lab by 1100h to bleed new P.e. (#1521) from WR. Summary of results on WR - P.
