Holmes,R 1962 Eroha alpina 25 aug Barrow, Alaska a flock of 7 immature + 3 lone individuals were found - feeding along the wet sand edges. Two were associated with m. Limnodromus. The adults, were seen on the south side of the beach ridge - near the gull line - all three showed at least half of the black belly - but some molted. It seems that most of the adults have departed - except for small groups + lovers - where, as immature are still here (or are moving through) + there are congregating - mostly all on shore or gravel parts (adjacent) In the afternoon - a group of 14 immature + 1 adult were in gravel pit - near Britha's Area. 26 Aug 6-8 immature in Britha's Gravel Area -several heard near the float plan - layer & I saw flying over Gull Lake. Some Hail / Starlings (mostly Phalangia, I believe) were seen along the Sandsprut layer - SW of Point Lay - some I then appeared to be Dunlin - but not identified, not positive. 27 Aug 2,2,2,3,1,2 - immature seen south
