March 23 (Sat) We finished checking RC drift fence traps by 0900h - Not as many
annulids (14) on the west fence as yesterday. Returned home to work
on NSF proposal and Marco went into town for groceries. Today
was clear and sunny, temperature in the low 60s.
We reset traps on MC (including grid traps) from 1630 to 1700h and
RC drift fence traps from 1700 to 1730h.
Marco went out on RC tonight for telemetry work around 2000h.
