Other studies necessitated leaving the hide unoccupied for a whole day yesterday. However, intrepid field reporters tell us that the Gregory visited the nest several times during the course of the day, from around 11am onwards. It is hard to know for what purposes it leaves the nest site, aside from the usual biological functions. (These creatures to enjoy savouring their meals over long periods)
Today has brought some very exciting news though! We believe we have located the den to which the Gregory retreats to eat. Careful not to make our presence known - lest we spook this timid beast - we observed it for more than a whole lunch-time as it fed from what appeared to be a £2.95 pizza. Presumably it has developed the ability to function within the human market-economy, which is a major development.
Sadly, our alloted field-observation period came to an end and we had to leave it chewing thoughtfully, not a care in the world. Presumably it doesn't have any pressing impingements on its time. Oh how we envy its carefree, savage ways.
