with Niko. Much territorial behavior
in baird's and semi-pals. Found
two baird's nests that Niko had

was cold, wet, and windy; Didn't mind
at all coming in for lunch.
After lunch and a nap, went
out through drum area again with
Tom. Activity as before. Found 2
baird's nests here, and 1 in beach
ridge polygons, and localized several
others. These, plus one Niko found this
afternoon, makes 6 today! Saw very quiet
group of 3 pectorals, and only 1 red-back.
The close arm of beach ridge is very

that were earlier localized. Collected
a very few feeding observations before
coming in at 6:15.
After evening repast went out toward
Voth Area. Dropped Niko off in Britton's
area to look for turnstone nests.
Ran traplines 3a-3b with Tom with
zero result in each line. Much
semi-pal activity in Voth Area. Saw

wings raised, tail cocked, body
horizontal, which resolved into
