Journal Armatary Roada, 2 miles E. of Armatary, Kenady Co., Texas. Elevation 20 ft. April 27 is dominated by herbs, about evenly splay between herb-leaved and grasses. May 2 There is some prickly pear & something akin to Cone Chelle, but with (croft) a more typically "tarked" trunk and more gracile aspect. La too more convey, oaks with greater size, frequently supported epiphytes, particu- larly species moss. One of the understory plants I shaves have mentioned is the beautiful red-flowered Turk's cap. It is very common ?bushac? here. The little mosquito I saw on the side was in Acacia thrips. There were goldfinches here, in singers and in pairs, with much singing, and chasing, sex for sex, was also noted. But birds were widely spaced and so far shun partial to the oaks to the exclusion of other vegetation here. I will give collecting live a try. swim? While exploring the morning of April 27 on the west side of Hwy 77, a huge swarm of bees passed over me while I was in a mosquito braguer, flying due N. I couldn't help wondering if these were more Africanized bees.. Also on the W. side I saw a large, unfamiliar black and grey antelope. The Renatary informs me that I had seen a P Nilgai, an antelope from SE Asia introduced by his grandfather in the 1920s?. Black buck has also been introduced as after farming? for a few years, soon to have died out. I set up 2 nets in the evening of April 27 next to the only standing casual waters I found, surrounded on three sides by a sparse mosquito bosque. I did not open the nets today, but they would be ready for early working in the morning. I set up my camp with NE side of a mothe ? small lake about 3/4 mile NW of the road headquarters, near those cats. The weather April 27 was cloudless all day, temperatures 65-80 F. Winds blew 10-20 mph S & SE from 10:30 until just to sunset.
