P. De Benedictis 1964 26 San Pt. Espinosa, Fernandina Is., Galapagos. and unmarked, there are at least 3 Buleo den, a mottled jiv, a dark phase ad. (which attracted Dr. Miller) and a greyer ad. (the mate of the above). Flight style is very stocky, long square wings and a long whitish tail giving it an almost eagle like appearance. Beak and feet and legs very yellow. Took a picture of one sitting in water at a great distance, plus a picture of a cormorant group very far off to finish the first role. Yellow wobbleos are fairly common in the mangroves although not as much as at The Darwin Station at Santa Cruz. Large glasshoppers very common on the lava. Several large channels extend far into the lava and seals go as far in as the water, as do scattered Iguanas. Several large isolated pools have fish, some 8-12" long. A dragonfly, Tarnelium sp., is very common here and prob. breeds in brackish water if it breeds locally. Miguel Costo showed me an inactive nest he said was a Night Heron. The nest was a circular pile of sticks placed in a pothole (under a ledge) in an open lava field. The site was much cooler than the surrounding lava during the day. Came in about noon for lunch and slept until about 1:30 p. like almost everyone else. In the afternoon set up a tower to watch the cormorants at the pt. and spent about an hour from 3-4 watching them. Noddies and Blue footed Boobies flying by the pt. Saw the
