Beaver 1967 Alaska Journal29 27 June (cont.) through the drum area, I came in with Dr. Pielke. 28 June I came to the lab. at 0830 and got my samples # 29 through #36 out of cold storage prior to working them over. I decided to try for some pictures of Buff Breasted Sandpipers and what ever in the drum area this A.M. with Tom. 0925 After delays to get camera equipment ready, we went to the drum area about 0910. At 0925, the white -ranged bird on the nest # 2(?) was noted for the incubation records. I took several photos of both birds and semipalmated sandpipers. We came to the Golden Plover nest and site - he in this case since the plumage was dark black and no molt was evident- performed the distraction display with in 100 feet of us ! We both took several pictures. The bird also approached us with aggressive postures while calling very loudly. The pictures should be excellent, I hope! We continued on south through the barrel area and took several shots of a semipalmated sandpiper that had gray & lavender on the legs and head. I also took several photos of a Buff-breasted Sandpiper, but the bird was not displaying, only feeding. I took two shots of a S. Bunting,
