Stercorarius parasiticus 12 June Meade River Coal Mine, 15°025'W, 70°29'N. Alaska Very well in evidence. Day said he found a nest with one Egg at the South end of L. Agassiz. I suppose that's why they not around though occasionally see them chasing k-Tail at the village. 13 June There seems to be 1° pair near the village bluffs, at least 3 seen together. The pair is a light and dark bird. No evidence of a nest 16 June Found the nest at the S end of L. Agassiz. (Pale?, dark?) Two eggs. When we got near the nest the birds flew our screaming much like pomarine, except that they did not try to hit us, and also went into a display, display with the wings open and weakly flopped; the head up and the tail down. They called a low weezy, wing call that sounded like a side puppy or a whining dog. [sketch of bird in flight] Later we saw this pair on a high polygon. The ? begging and the male feeding by regurgitation. The ? begging posture was a low arch with upward protrus beak, and the ? a upright erected posture. These birds cover an area about a square mile from south ridge to village creek.
