from my trap on the path down to the coastal plain. I
SHOT 1 Hallungs audubon. He was in the path when I came
along. He ran a jump off very fast so fast that I could
not tell whether he was a jumped. He stopped about [illegible]
ft from the 30.4 meters from the path. I shot him
with 410 rounds and did not kill him instantly.
He then began to jump about jumping 80 inches
in the air.

The weather on a whole was fine. In the morning
and early afternoon the sky was cloudless.
About 4:30 & 5:00 PM it clouded up and turned blue
but it has now (10 p.m.) cleared off.
I caught 1 Crossa forsen & 1 Galidia elegans.
I have noted that the galidielegans #147 & #150
ate all the bait but the Crossa forsen #149 did not
touch it. Ortho procta forsen also ate the bait also
& C. forsen. 144 ate the bait after he was caught
as he could not have gotten at it without
getting caught.
