52 nov.6 To La Veranada with Anita + Isabel. Stopped at Barranco. A lot of wire had been clear cut on the east side of the road, right up to our marked Climp E2, but it was not disturbed. Sacramento Moreno from Doñana in Spain dropped in, then dinner with Adrian Morgan and his family. He is continuing his Preparations for an Environmental Education Camp. Yesterday in the Museum in the Civic Center two young men were studying the moose exhibit and I heard one use the word "Cricetidos". It was José Sins Puig y, 4th Parkguard of the XIV Promoción. nov.7-16 Barceló - Barranco nov.16 To Estación Perito Moreno with Anita, in PM. Walked up to the cover SE of the lake and saw, as Christie had said, a pile of droppings on the floor of the darkest cave, under a shallow, rough, scooped out place in the ceiling, maybe a quart of droppings; definitely brown, not black, too big for myotis, probably Histioteles. Went back at 11:30 p.m., nothing in the cave, but a couple of bats flew in and around the mouth of the cave while we were inspecting. We set out front for about ½ hr, saw a few more bats, then shelled in to cave again (nothing). Left about 12:40 a.m. Moon about 1 day past full. Hunted for Reithrodontes with the NVG's near + in Marfolf's turf and along the railroad - in about 2 hrs saw nothing.
