jawfish is abla to close his mouth oompletoly over his load — though it 
gives him the look of having a mouthful of mush* From time to time he also 
pops them in and out of his mouth, to give them a change of water circulation, 
I suppose* 
July 6* 
Good day* Sun most of the time, with brisk breeze* First thing I did 
at location today was to take a small fish to the homo of the mantis* He 
was in his burrow with his eyes up* He has a high mound of sand all around 
his house -- must have a vary deep hole* I dropped the fish three times 
before it landed at a reasonable eight inches from his doorway. He appeared 
gathering himself for action* When he moved he was out of the hole in a 
flash and back into it again with the minnow* I should be surprised if the 
action took a tenth of a second. And that was that. Now, at least, we 
know that he likes fish. We must see what he will do with a live one* 
The little gurnard was still preoccupied with sliding up and down the 
screen of the shooting pen. f/hen we put on the glass she slid up and down 
that. Very unhappy. Tom and I gathered several handfuls of small shells 
and bits of others and sprinkled them over the fresh new sand of the pen to 
give it some character. Looked better to us, but it appeared to matter not 
at all to the fish. Up and down the pen glass. 
Remo and his lazy shark p. 1 have been in the auxiliary pen for several 
days now* Since he is quicker on the trigger than the shark wo lured him
