Summary: Added electric wire to the fence, standard field work

Vaira
2015-02-04

I arrived about 9:30 with Siyan, Housen and Ana. The Delta and Central Valley had heavy fog, but here it is mostly clear and sunny with little to no wind. The grass looks good but a little dry. The water hole is full but the puddles in the road are dry or drying up.

I put up an electrified wire on the fence. The wire is at about 20 inches above the ground. I tried tightening up the fence by adjusting a couple of the braces.

Siyan collected data and did the standard fieldwork.
