Hastings Natural History Reservation

09 Jan, 03 AM - 13 Jan, 05 AM

The purpose of the trip is to do some GPS localization of woodrat stickhouses in the study area across the highway where I have previously worked. I shall also assess the suitability of the area through which the new trail was constructed last year for work I have planned (described in a previous application). I plan no trapping of animals or disturbance of sleeping nests on this trip. I do plan to look at houses from the outside to decide whether they are active or abandoned, to staple small waterproof labels to small trees near the stickhouses for future identification. I have also spoken to Rick at Carmel Valley Electric and he has scheduled a visit during my stay there (on Jan 10, 11 or 12) to finish connecting the shed to power. I need to do some simple carpentry to finish up a second Berlese apparatus and will plan to do that on Jan 8 ? 9 (in the shop/garage if I need shelter from rain).
