Kicker-Bo Cave State Park site 22 1/2 miles N. of Brackettville
Kinney Co. Texas. Elevation 1700 feet.
May 30 I tried using Kely Bryan's nets from 08:30 - 12:45. These
(cont) are set up around an artificial deep among a small grove
(30'x 40') of mixed deciduous small trees and shrubs near the
S. end of the Thistle field near the house. These nets are
about 1 1/2 miles W. of the lodge. I caught no goldfinches in these
nets. I had the Lodge nets in use until after sunset, about
21:00.
The weather today was quite a change. It was cloudy this morn-
ing, with several episodes of thunder & lightning, but no
real rain. Continuous cloud cover broke at 13:15, after
while the day was mostly cloudy. Temp. pattern 75°-88°
83°F. No wind until 16:15, then S.E. at 5 mph, falling off at
sunset. It was very humid, especially in the morning.
