0645h - out checking traps on MC. It's overcast, upper 40's (much
1000-05s.
warmier than previously). 16 traps were turned over on MC this
am (10% of traps). The pattern was somewhat random and there
was no sign of urine, so I think S. griseus was the culprit.
Started checking traps on RL drift fences by 0750h. Taken out
by 0900h. spent the am washing clothes and cleaning out the
captive animal enclosures. Summary of results on MC - Podofillus: 3 capt.
P. longii: 4"
P. truci: 2"
Perognathus: 1
TOTAL: 10 captives
It was partly cloudy this afternoon and mid-70s. Supposedly
weather
a front is on its way. Spent the afternoon working on the computer.
Reset RL drift fence traps from 1515 to 1545h and all MC traps from
1600-1645h.
215h - out checking traps on MC. It's clear partly cloudy,
snowing full and overcast, low 50's. The sky with the clouds
and the full moon is simply incredible tonight. A flashlight is
useless in opening it's so bright. Anyway, I'm only going to
check traps when #020 (P. truci) and her mate would be
(eg the SW corner of the grid). - Caught #020 and redusted her,
but no sign of her mate. Returned by 2145h.
