Lehner, P. 1965 JAN. 21 rain and strong northerly winds all night; Binion received a phone call about 0900 saying that he could fly out on an early flight if he could get there by 1000; the Coast Guard VP wouldn't start so we took the noon M boat over; his plane finally left at 1645; I called Dr. Ely to tell him of the delay so that there would be dry ice waiting for the birds; the C. Noddy egg on the islet was destroyed; Grey-backed Tern eggs are receiving a great amount of destruction; we received the cannons and net today. Birds shipped with Binion: 41 Sooty Terns 5 Common Noddies 7 Wedge-tailed Shearwaters 3. Great Frigatebirds 1 Red-tailed Tropicbird 4 Golden Plovers 1 Rectoral Sandpiper 3 Grey-backed Terns
