Plovialis dominica
26 July Barrow, Alaska - one in a dry field in A vortlana.
27 July about 4 out in the low grass near a pool's edge in Central
marsh and 3 or dry, low relief polygons east of ATCS.
4 in the wet lake plains near lines VII; very little plower
noise, and all looked like transients.
29 July A pair which acted like they had groomed (I saw by Hamilton)
between lines V+VI on Pitelka's census plot and
other on a polygonized area near lines X+XI.
A group of 4 near Wohlschlag trough and a flock of
45+ seen flying towards the point along Elson
bypass, circling as if to land, as it came by,
and calling loudly, the common note is the
"wee-awit-wit-wee" note.
