The day was completely clear + warm. I was
able to write with bare hands on the
alllacks in absolute comfort. This warm
spell - the last 203 days - has started
some melting. Bubbles have formed
in camp + in low spots in the
pengunery. These freeze at night.
A beautiful almost full moon one
the mouth of the bay.

Spent the morning in the Skuary, stood
To the base by 1 PM for lunch. Took a
little over 100 feet of movie of Shaw.
After lunch walked out 4 section
of robery on slope near cape. Took some
movie (250'), spent an hour counting
penguins coming into the robery.
