Saw an olive whorl flycatcher in aspt fir stand, probably Wright's. This was 50' up from the stream. Beaver on south side have gone 40' upslope from the old RR grade to get fir & almost as fasto get asp. All dams on new section of the colony on S side show new work & are higher. By mid morning skies had clouded over heavily & high winds & a drop or so of rain, then cleared up some staying windy. 2 left at #40. 12:20 after a little rain at 11:40.
