8/1/25 August 1, 1925 - clear - windy - a nice day to work. Under a log not far from where I caught the first spiny-pocket mouse (Heteromys) I had the tail of another in one of my mouse traps. Another trap [illegible] nearly by was sprung. All but two of the traps that I set in the corn patch were sprung. Perhaps this ill luck was due to new traps. I reset the traps and six more in a ditch near by where many dead leaves were piled up. In these leaves there appeared to some small run ways. I climbed a large tree that had some hollows in it. In these holes and on some of the branches I saw some mammal droppings. They were black and about this large [illegible]. Tomorrow I intend to set some Schyler traps there. Near the lake I saw a squirrel (Sciurus). By trying to let it get far enough away to be within proper range I let it get away in the dense foliage. As I was walking up a ravine watching for squirrels I noticed a hollow stump which was about 15 ft. high. One side of the upper half was knocked off. When I pecked in I saw two little bats. They were like the ones Dr. Miller collected. They were hanging by their feet head down. One held his head out horizontally in front while the other's head was turned back under. They were hanging to the sides of the hollow trunk. (Saccopteryx) caught
