Cable 1959 Chavadrius semipalmatus 23 May Pitmegea River—two or three noted on gravel bar on right limit about 3/4 mile above Camp. 7 May Pitmegea — pair seen courting on the gravel bar immediately down viewed from camp. June Peters-Schroeder Lakes — two collected on Casuivene Creek about 1/2 mile up. Pairs were seen at frequent intervals along the gravelly stream bed and around the meadow areas of the meadows. I kept a tally of all birds seen: including the pair shot, I saw 17 individuals — mostly in pairs along 2 1/2 miles of creek bed. More were seen along Wlastler the other day, so probably their species has just recently arrived. No distraction displays were given, but chasing was observed among several closely stationed plowers. One member of a pair was seen to chase a Barwels dovel (few when it landed near the pair of plowers). Especially congregated in the lower part of Big Meadow by the dikes. June Peters-Schroeder — couple pairs at mouth of Casuivene— one bird gave a long distraction display
