30 most clearly in my mind and remind me most of that dreadful day, I did make the following observations: the nesting Sooty Terns are concentrated on the Northwest side of Kamone; they are nesting below and between 3-4 ft. high Sida which is thicker than fleas on a dogs back - they are also among the bunch grass which lays between the Sida and the beach - they have an extremely hard time getting out of their nesting sites and flying up above the Sida to reach the air currents necessary for controlled flight; they were easy to catch - often I could stand in one place and grab as many as eight off the ground; the Widgetail population seems to be composed of 20% dark phase - they are much more common here (dark phase, that is) than I have seen them before.
