Amerman, Kenneth 1964 March 17 - Twenty-five to thirty present 2200-2400. Several sitting amongs Sooties but fairly near the edges of groups, along the southwest borders of the Sooty populations. A few on North side near Red-footed Booby nest 4, and many on open ground just south of bunker. March 25 - At least ten pairs sitting at various spots on the periphery of the island - some by bunker, some by Noddies on south shore, some on north beach west of Red-foot - At midmorning. A few were in burrows. We are finding several in burrows at night now. 100+ present each night now, still not = the same birds each night. One was present under the sidewalk by the transmitter building all day yesterday. Some birds arriving well before dark 7:15 - 7:30. March 29 - 150+ nightly. Many birds we have handled are around but we can't tell now how many from each previous night are present the nest. We wandered out to the islet, found 26 returns and banded ten. Banded 35 more on the rest of the island. Several pairs remain around nearly all morning now and a few into early afternoon. Many have returned by 7 p.m., a few around 6 - 6:30. April 6 - At least a few birds apparently remain all day, in burrows and a few on the beach by the bunker. They may leave for an hour or so between 3 and 6 o'clock, and may be feeding just outside the reef as Dave and I noted them doing on the fishing trip. Nightly population 200+.
