Chevron:
Travis, Michael and I collected last Friday (4/28/06). We setup a light at "the farm" then piled into one car and drove up to "the Chevron". We only saw one long-horn in the B.K. drive-thru, one sphinx moth under the diesel-side lights at the Chevron and a few mole-crickets. Michael and I shared potato fries and Travis had chicken fries. They (Chevron) have stored some things in "the corral" like signs and displays; might have good places for things to hide under to get out of the heat. We drove to the other gas station down the road and didn't see much of anything there.
We drove back down Washington and didn't have too much on the sheet either. Tons of toads and frogs calling though, and there were two toads on the sheet. The night was a bit too windy and a bit too cool. The upper pasture has cows on it again, so I'm hoping the dung beetles return.
