R. De Benedictis 1965 Araniace interspers 22 June Barrow, Alaska - there appeared to be somewhat more settled birds due the Britton's Area region but no flakes seen. Birds fed in wet areas by turning over cuttings and somewhat ripping into the moss below; the patches of moss exposed appear to be about 2x4 inches size; birds seem to catch something in the turning motion but also appear to peck in the newly exposed area. 23 June Birds seem to day seemed more interested in flying over than doing anything else. Present close to ARL. 24 June Single bird seen in flight Today in the AM in the area visited yesterday. Birds seen near Elson 25 June Scattered pairs were seen almost everywhere today but very little vocalization was heard considering how much they usually make. 26 June A very Noisy pair heard in the W part of Holme's Marsh and a pair still at the Animal hub. 27 June Still two by the animal hub. Found a nest with 4 eggs in the Voth area, located on a rather bare area Nest A.I. (high polygon). The eggs were dark shiny olive quills a bit brighter than their background. The Ternstone was seen to fly off the nest to attack a jaeger which flies over, and no distraction display 28 June Very inconspicuous air this area from the hub to Gasline Ridge.
