Lehner, R. 1905 Feb. 5 ran the mouse grid - still getting a large trap success; ran gufwire census; Sooties fairly thick near the island in the morning; 1010 saw a Great Frigate bird chasing a Red-tailed Tropicbird at a high altitude; Norm found a broken egg (probably a Common Noddy or Sooty) on the Island; we took the 6 Sooty Tern Plot pictures but recorded the date as the 4th in the picture; 3 Red-tailed Tropicbirds over the island again today; Sooties started arriving in multitudes by 1845.
