GULLION 1950 Fulica Americana 271 Apr. 2 Unis. Calif. Campos, Alameda Co., Calif. Caused no tissue reaction, but it seems to be pretty loose in the skin. I'll see now it holds up. O/B - shield same as on March 17, 1950. Couldn't find the Estrogen pellets for sure. WT 4/5 gms. Had to put staples on the tag over the tworn wires. Tip of bill to top of shield 43 mm. O - Very much enlarged from March 17, 1950 -(see comparison on page 288) But otherwise bird about the same. Weight - 495 grams. Plastered the top of its head down with Duco cement. Y/LB apparently a considerable decrease in shield size. No longer 5, but only 55, about class 3 rather than class 11. Photographed. WT 477 grams. Other birds put back to finish tomorrow. P/L6 turned into the pond. With the others.
