Phalaropus fulicarius 27 June Meade River Coal Mine, 157°25'W, 78°29'N, Alaska lakes, and 2-3% and a 7 in two pools in the clepland polygonal area. One male collected was diving a 4 out of its territory. Nest was also taken. She had laid 4 eggs, and her oviducts were regressing. The largest follicle was about 4 cm, and still vascular. 28 June Several small groups of phalaropes that were over during the day included a few Redls, though Nuthers were predominant. The rests on the census plot unchanged. 29 June A few in the polygonal areas inland from camp, most males, and in the marshy lake margin region, where 3% were present. A few small groupings on lake Agassiz. 30 June Two or 3% were chasing a out of a marshy area along lake Agassiz and 2% feeding in the lake later. Several rest on lake Agassiz but no groups of %. 1 July Only a few birds seen in the village flats area, all in flight overhead. 3 July Both nests in the census plot & k. The 7 or one went into a collision like crouch as if to give a distraction display, but then jumped up and flew 6-7 feet and crouched again. The distraction display, if this is it, is as distinct as is the other behaviors of these cutlers.
