Faleo vesticolles
1 July
Colville River
No evidence of guys was found on the ground at the upper alcie on the Oslanna-
garik. There were some fairly recent droppings and some remains of waterfowl
and shore birds - no fresh ptarmigan remains.
Last year's nest contained a dead young
still in the down - the little one we left
there last year.
No evidence of guys was found from
the air, we circled over it twice, and
I could see into all the path holes, of an
active alcie at the Kill of Nine Heads
No evidence of guys was found on
the ground at [illegible] Bluff or the
Double Knife Ridge Bluff - from the air
no evidence was obtained for the other
two sites on the Colville where they
have nested in the past.
