This reading was interesting: Grid 13 is a newly placed grid running 275 m along a transect headed SE from tower: X 125m A B Tower 25x25 subunits 25x25 100 275 a specified spatial relationship with Grid 4 + 7: (approx here) [illegible] At 1800, following the 1740 flight, only 11B (of all the birds) had any birds, + they were distributed (0,0) = 1 golden; (0,1) ≤1 buff-breasted; (1,0)=1 Golden, 2 buff-breasted; (1,1) 6 Golden, 18 Buff-breasted.
