(3 July) to check the emergence traps - nothing
yet - and look for lemming nests on Beach
Ridge. Ended up just walking around
enjoying the tundra. Found a few crane
flies - all 3 species. Brought these
in to try marking with paint spots. Did
this after dinner, then counted, cleaned,
and prepared tanglefoots, wrote notes,
and early to bed.
4 July
Barrow, Alaska
Beautiful, warm weather. Dave
and I went out to change tanglefoots
and check emergence traps. Only a
few crane flies on the boards and
none in the traps, yes. Spent the rest
of the day in Barrow at the 4th of July
célébration.
5 July
Barrow, Alaska
In with the manhaul and back to
bed to try to avoid a cold. Clayton White
came in from Amchitka last night.
Spent some time talking with him and,
after lunch. He, Dave, and I went out to
check emergence traps. It was cold
and foggy today - not at all pleasant.
Used mud from the road to completely
seal up some of the emergence traps. Our
first catch - a ? Pedicia from site I.
