Stercorarius longicaudus 1 June Made River Coal Mine, 157°25'W, 69°29'N, Alaska A nice adult was pushed along the creek near the village. When it was approached it flies off to the area where two Parasitic Jaegers have been hanging out, and was attacked by the jaegers. It flies off. N only the rleade. seeming to hover once Kestrel-like over the creek a mile N of camp. 2 June One seen near the blowing dunes N of camp about 11:00 AOT and one over camp about 3pm. Two circling over the "census" plot area and tenable flies over me silently in the evening, but they don't appear to be staging around. 3 June One or two present near the village, seen in flight only. One seen 1 mi. S of camp about 10:24. 5 June Two were scraping the meat off an old Ptarmigan kill that its quills were working on 1 June. Three overall, a little skin with meat on the leg bones. One bird would gulp this and pull, occasionally knocking off bits of meat which the other bird picked up. When they pull the tail feathers really bopped up and down. They walked a funny waddle and one, which seemed nervous, would "paddle its feet" up and down. The two worked on the carcass for several minutes. 4 longtails were chasing the local Parasitic Jaegers near the village, circling loudly, and diving at and striking downwards the feed. Later Two longtails were chasing these Parasitic Jaegers one or two others trying which were pushed on the village ridge near the cemetery.
