Childs 1955 Stercorarius pomarinus June 26 Point Barrow, Alaska Several seen yesterday including one apparently feeding on insects on the ground. None seen today in the same area. June 30 Nest deserted; eggs broken + obviously eaten that Mohn & McNabb banded bird yesterday. July 1 Last two days have been outstanding in the absence of jaegers all kinds, at least in the air July 19 Wainwright, Alaska One flew away shore today July 23 The absence of anything but an occasional straggler after the first day here is an un- explained mystery. With so many being there should have been more.
