Passerellus sandwichensis 16 June Meadle River Coal Mine, 157025'W, 70024'N, Alaska Wide spread in quarry areas, the's singing. Mostly along L. Agassiz. 17 June Several's in the cottage flats. Not singing on the far side of the river. Bad? weather? 21 June One singing on the census plot for the first time. Listably from a pair by the coal mine. 23 June Two males singing from the west side of lake Agassiz in quarry-willow areas. 25 June Found a partly domed one nest - [illegible] - under a tuft at tall grass containing 5 pale blue, heavily spotted eggs. The nest was well lined. I was never able to see the bird flushed off the nest, but a pair of Savannah sparrows were very excited about my presence near the nest. 26 June Found a 5-egg nest near the coal mine. The nest was a simple cup, feather-lined, nearly covered over by tall Elymus. The 4 flushed at 3 feet and was very hard to see. She didn't come back until some time later. 28 June All but one egg in the nest by the coal mine has hatched. Parent's shipping, possibly at the area. 3 July Only two young in the nest by the Coal Mine now. 1 July Again, carrying food, about 3/5 of the way down the cottage flats. Apparently nesting at an inland side of the willows, not good about keeping the nest hidden. 6 July Still two large young in the nest by the coal mine. [illegible]
