B and T trap at the TI Lek. B shoots the net launcher at a male and just misses, as a hen is just on her way into the trapping area. B and T head north and look for northern collared hens. Find an area with roughly 12 sage grouse foraging on a rocky slope. No apparent birds strutting, but large number of pellets on the ground.
T looks for raven nests in GV, hunter barns, and hayfields. Does not find nesting birds on hillside to the south of GV road. Hunter barns birds are nesting in the shed. Hayfields birds are nesting to the Southwest of their original spot, closer to the road. No other birds seen nesting along hayfields row of cottonwoods, although I may have missed a nest along that row that Bryan later pointed out.
