A few were noted at dusk flying near thickets at the meadow, but they could not be obtained. However, at 10:45 P.M. Ernie Cad and I netted two bats, a Myotis subulatus and a Myotis evolis, as they were flying around inside the rock house. We perhaps scared them from their roosting place. To bed at 11:00 PM. At dusk I shot a Rock Wren at a rocky outcrop in the sagebrush near camp.
