Arieman 1964 Sand - Johnston Feb 20 in catching created by The '7> full moon directly overhead and also to see if they will perhaps begin nesting with the nightly disturbance stopped. Feb 21 Made our weekly survey of Johnston. Both gulls still there in their same spots. Banded 5 more Red-tailed Tropicbirds and repainted most of the others with darker green. Total of 24 banded here now, plus at least 9 still not banded. Others present - White-tailed Tropic bird - 1 - Dave reports 2 were seen at times before. It seems quite possible that they may be nesting but - we have been unable to discover the site if so. Ruddy Turnstone - 6 - Marked decease. Golden Plover - 60 - 70 Waidowin Tattler - 3 Sanderling - 6 Dairy Tan - 8 - 3 in air with 9-10 Red-tails. Scotties sitting down before dark on SE side of Transmitter building.
