Film crew tries to take photos of the animals as though in the wild for several hours. I return back to house. Rested until after dinner & we get ready for processing Kings Island group prior to release. Ben & Beate stay out & Jim & film crew go in to help them bring the [[strikethrough]] log back [[/strikethrough]] nest tree log back. They bring animals back & [[end page]] [[start page]] spend about 1 1/2 hours trying to shift family from den tree to a shift cage or traps. It ends up taking an incredibly long time and we don't start actual processing until ~930 PM, with 8 animals to do. All animals are in good shape & have gained weight - except the adult lactating ♀ who dropped from 650 to 540 grams in 2 1/2 weeks and the young ♀ #6 who gained, but much less than her brother ( 100 grams less). Claudio et. al. film some & drink pinga & everyone ends up very tired & slightly irritable. We aren't finished until 1 AM & only put transmitters on #1 7 & 8
