TROCKET, J. 1991 Journal Chew Ranch, adjacent to jurisdiction of Dinosaur National Mon- ument, Uinta County, Utah. Elevation 5000 ft. June 11-17 on BLM land about 1 mile E. of the Chew Ranch. These nets (CoW) were open from 11:10 to 14:00. At least I enjoyed some net (bow COW) success, both on the ranch and on BLM lands. Owing to (2K other app.) threatening weather, collecting activities were suspended after 14:00. I spent most of the afternoon and early evening putting up birds in the shelter of my tent. But before doing this I briefly explored the south part of the Chew Ranch, known to the crews as the sheep shearing corral area. This is the gated area mentioned earlier. This area showed both promise for goldfinches, and less a intensive presence as a composite on the ranch. I then free moved camp to a feat bluff above the drainage (no name given to the creek by the crews). Weather June 13: Solid overcast, high humidity, light breeze, <50°F at dawn. Partly cloudy 8:45-12:30, otherwise Highest Temp ~95°F clearly all day. A very darkly cloudy to 14:00, with intermittent showers 15:30-16:15; Heavy downpour, lightning very clear, and fierce ferociously 18:15-19:00. V. Windy today from 10:30- 19:15, winds out of S. 10-15 mph, until thunderstorms, when wind direction was variable and to 25 mph or more. On June 14, I continued to work two nets on BLM land about 1 mile E. of Chew Ranch property, the same premises as yesterday. Among many birds caught were a few lesser goldfinches. When the weather deteriorated about midday, I closed the nets and returned to camp. Eating lunch while walking, I explored the sheep shearing
