(10 June)
1 - thursday; FAP - Friday.
After lunch went out to drum
area to help Custer place some
longspur traps. Saw little exposed
ground there, but pusilla and bairdii
were quite active - displaying and
frequent chasing - over where was open.
Drove our to Gasline Ridge and back to
beach ridge. In both places not much
exposed ground. Both had dispersed
pairs of alpine and bairdii. the tundra
still looks like the 1st of June, although
the snow has become very soft and
wet. Could still drive right across
North and South Meadow lakes.
In the evening put up a ♀ Wilson
Warbler that I collected in the drum
area this a.f.r., then took a shower and
wrote field notes.
In Britton's area and south-
ward the melt is getting down to
low-polygon troughs and other low-
lying sites, and more lemming sign
is being revealed. Right now it
looks like a good pre-high.
