Calidris 17 July Barrow, Alaska - about 25 pound in V0TH slough. They feed out in the stagnant sediments of the streams when the red grass has grown to provide good cover. They are much shyer than earlier in the year and flushed at fairly close approach. I suspect they are not feeding by subsurface type motion to the extent calidris in this year (but saw very few actual feeding type motions). A few were also seen near hine FIA along the port there and were similarly shy, 19 July The nest in Nicomet Marsh OK but the only probable bird seen were flying well up in theirs, circling over this area. 20 July I flew over the hines I-II and landed in the polygonal area west of the Casline Ridge. 21 July a group of 6 seen just N of Pitelka's census plot included 1 F. 22 July The nest behind AACS hauled at least one yamptus just leaving when I checked it about 10 AM. got photos. The 4 was very alarmed when I approached (more so than ever where there were eggs) and went into prolonged distraction displays; she came to 18 feet of me on several occasions. The young were not inclined to seen about today at all. See from Jaeger. A small group still in V0th slough feeding on the flat along the stream and in the stream, especially in openings in the tall grass (4 to 6") where they were hard to see. They were shy, not as bad as on 17 July but went into alert postures when approached.
