Camped by the Finny Pines near Sa Sibels. Saw
quiet, active leaf-cutter ants between the hanging
bridge and Sa Sibels. They were carrying green
leaves.
April 22
Sunday
Night started out clear, then partly cloudy; no
winds. Heavy frost on car and sleeping bag. Start stop
out at 7 a.m. Car barely started.
Picked up the 6 least trophs at 9 a.m.: I also found
1 Rathtrods. The latter was entering the burrow from which
I prowled the trees yesterday evening.
This locality is on the north side of the paved road from
Barbados to Confluencia, a few hundred meters north of the
entrance to a fancy manor house (Belgian owner of the estancia?),
or 6.8 km north of the gate to Est. Portin Chacabuco, or
9.5 km north of the road junction to Villa Argentina. This
same locality was called 10 km NNE Ushual (Trof) Dec. 10, 1983.
Then drove back toward Barbados to where the new
ops Vichelins is being buried. Beautiful bulldozed strip across
the slope; goes south of Cano Geores and then across Est.
San Ramon toward Pidcamuyen. Will try to find out if they are
still bulldozing to the east.
