More Crow Tracking
We now get to play wildlife biologist. The lassies who are tracking the crows at Pica’s work have an extra yagi antenna which we get to borrow. (A yagi is a directional antenna, looking something a TV aerial, that can be used for radio location purposes.) Previously when we hear the crows go beep——beep on our radio all we could do is say the crow is within a quarter-mile of where we are, but now we’ll be able to home in on him. Schlepping around the antenna we’ll look official, or is that suspicious, as well.
One sad note is the lassies relocated the transmitter for the only magpie they have caught so far: it was amidst a pile of feathers.

Hey, you let a story line drop! We wanna hear about Crow #594, the one who liked to hang around. What happened next, Daddy?
