Holmes, R 1462 Phalaropus fulicarius 6 July Barrow, Alaska 3 a.m. nuti drum area - did a partial distraction display. When it was flushed at flee moments for 2' handles - lowered head, tail which was partially fanned - both further were ruffled so that my almost stock straight up & wings were out of a fold. The bird flickered from side to side - ever very almost touchin the ground as it leaned to that side. After about 30 seconds - I saw almost staggering movement - the bird straightened up & stood there - in the usual clumsy Phalaropus manner. 9 July Small number crossing the plot - but no lays. Holes seen free. At south end 1 Skroul hole - 1 foot 1 ~150 g? and 1 at least 500 m an Arctophila - filled pond.
