Steve and I looked around the place with
Clayton & Dr Spofford on their way to their
memorial trip via Sava Northern shrike on
a wire. Steve and I separated from them
and went south. We saw at first place - g
yellow warbler, 2nd second place, im white
crowned sparrow, Fox sparrow, on a small
pond, 4 Green-wing Teal, willow warbler
Loven, and tree sparrow. After supper,
Steve and I went with Clayton to check
one of his lines. He had captured Microtus
oceanicus, cleithranomys nutillus and
lemmus. We talked about going up
the Colville river tomorrow to some salmon
eries. Saw 2 Northern Chaloupes
on a pond on our way back. Steve
and I fixed up an old air force truck
so we could haul the boat to the river
and then we each put up a C. rurtilus.
Dr Spofford and Clayton have two young
peregrines in the lab that come from a nest
that they had collected the 4th of june.
We turned in at 2430.
7 Aug. The weather this AM is foggy and cold - 33 deg F.
We walked the trap lines with Clayton, got water,
and then prepared to take the boat up river.
