Holmes,R. 1962 CrocePha alba June Barrow, Alaska #1 was checked - it has not changed since it was first located - lone lichen fragments in bottom - grassy material around sides #2. Today - an actual cup was present - a lightish gray mossy low polygon - over old gravel road. The edges of the cup were lined with mostly old grass (gray in color - some brown - but matched background quite well). The bottom was covered over - solid layer / Cladonia which seemed to be packed down - This is the mat well-made cup / De Pree. 8 June Bird not seen Britton's Ave - but were not really looked for. Two birds seen chasing flying south over panel ridge [hoofway] between Britton's + Voth's Aves. 9 June The entire afternoon evening ever spent in around Britton's Ave - no sign / 1 pair was noted. One displaying bird was found - between panel ridge & the vei crops. 10 June 3 birds seen feeding at the NNE edge / Deppard Pond - one bird was hunched - as seen above + violently chasing one individual away - while admirably displaying to the other - usually not causing it to move. I was seen in this area on the same evening.
