Notes
Flipped two spinys under a board at base of hill, and they immediately fled into crack in nearby granite rock. You can see this one with its head wedged in. It took 5 minutes of teasing before I got it to flee the crack and run back under the cover, from where I was able to capture it. He wasn’t happy at all about the ordeal.
