Aug. 27 ran routine checks during day and
did bookwork; spun down more Sooty Tern
blood samples during afternoon; worked on
mouse cage from midnight till 4:30 A.M.;
cats are causing more trouble with chicks;
checked with Thorman - he gave OK to trap
and take the cats to Johnston.
Aug. 28 slept late - Cam checked mousetraps;
early afternoon finished mouse cage while
Cam spun more blood; off to collect plants;
collected five species - put in press and taken
to pump house; we returned the Navy's
propellor today in response to a request from
the C.O. - they were very hospitable to us;
we gave them an invite for a cookout
tomorrow; there is great activity among
the wedgetails again - digging, billing,
moaning - we may have another spurt of
egg laying.
