General Account
6 August Jago Lake
and then all precipitation ended
at 22.00.
7 August Jago Lake
0900 out to see the traps.
Back in camp at 1636. At 1156 I went up
to the little lake above the Jago
ca 1/2 mi SW and near the lower
end, along a willow-grown drainage
out of the lake, I set up a mist net.
My collecting gear has a broken or
malfunctioning firing piece, so
the only way left for me to get birds
is by netting and trapping. This net
is set in the area where I saw a
well-spotted blue throat yesterday. The
net out 24 museum species in the
adjacent willows.
Spent the afternoon preparing
specimens. Ran the traps again in
the evening and set out another mist
net near T1-16, across the outer-
most bend of the river, in the area
where I saw the snipe the other day.
The mist net at the upper lake
caught 7 redpolls.
High clouds completely overcasting
all day - occasional drops of rain.
