24th July 1932. Mainly dull, very windy & showers frequent! Fine & sunny in afternoon!! Spent 3 hours 10.0 AM till 1.0 pm. at extreme end of North Bull, Co. DU. where J.N. Halbert took a single [[underlined]] Psen unicolor [[/underlined]] on 7/8/1898. I saw very good ground for aculeates, but lack of sun & bad wind made the capture of [[underlined]] Psen [[/underlined]] out of the question. With E. O'M.
