My Feb-Mar impressions are not changed
for Covania. The other (less desirable)
forage plants of course look better in
leaf than when seen bare. However,
I still cannot recommend an increase
in deer - & perhaps for many years.
In VT meadow this evening
we counted 52 deer in the herd.
They were too wild to approach,
but appeared to be in good
condition.
Aspens are just beginning to leaf
on top of the plateau although
they are in full leaf lower down.
We saw very few aspen sprouts.
One goosable seen near Pine Flat.
North Rim, Grand Canyon
June 11, 1933.
Trip:
Headquarters to Cape Royal to
Point Subline.
Five deer seen between Checkin'
station & headquarters. One coyote
in fine pelage seen near Cape Royal.
One Kayhalfquirrel at headquarters.
Flock of 60-70 ravens feeding in
VT meadow all day. Ferruginous
Rough-leg Swanses, Healtail hawks
seen in the park.
