P. De Benedictis 1964 5 Feb. Academy Bay, Santa Cruz Island, Galapagos. Out to sun off to see see much of what they were doing. About 15 Puffinus circling about in the calm of the bay, and several flew into crevices in the Bananch, between 5 & 5:30. One flew in, stay/tail out, 1 sec., flew out, circles c. 5 sec., & then went in to story. Saw 3 birds go in another large crevice at once. Most of the crevices they enter are only 2-3 feet above high tide level. II [illegible] were circling in the bay near the boat. Golden-brown, uniform, above, white, iridescent gold, below; Walker said they are not recorded from the Galapagos! (whatever they are). handed at the station about 6, Bob Pyle gave me a skull (pick up) of a Pterodroma phaeopygia which he brought in this evening from the W side of of Copa Hill, 570 m., Santa Cruz Is. He found the skull with a few other bones [which he said are exactly those of like the Hawaiian subspecies] in the fern, grass land, Micronia bell. He said the Hornamani's told him the petrel nest "in his park" and are not to be seen during the rest of the year. Trail to the highlands still open. 6 Feb awoken at 6 A.M by Dr. Miller to help him and Nat Cohen unload a few chests from the patrol boat. We went out without incident; there was a Noddy calling by the cliffs but didn't see much else. Tide fairly high. Came back about 6:30 & spent the next half hour carrying boxes to Dr. Miller's room (in a wheelbarrow). Saw an ad, a 1 1/2 yr. & a 2nd year Sooty Gull on the dock. The Tropidurine looked much more spotted and
