Holmes, R. 1960 Phalaropus fulicarius 6. 17 July Barrow - Kenoaik, Alaska had been destroyed. Many 3rd are beginning to molt. 19 July Barrow, Alaska Several broods were located today near 10th's nest at Rinaldi ridge. Some individuals were collected, others were banded. One individual just north of 10th's area was near a nest old and was not too far from being able to fly. The 3rd were with these broods, but they did not become especially excited when I was present. 21 July Kenoaik, Alaska The nest on the north part of foot contained three eggs when I arrived. The 3rd were not present. 3rd were seen occasionally during the day, but only 1 brood was found (+banded). 25 July Barrow, Alaska Several 3rd and their broods were encountered north of 10th's area. The young vary in size from 1-2 days old to almost flying. Five fledged 3rd were seen at larger pools.
