Aug. 16 an uneventful day - usual routine -
banded and painted more wedgetails; Caringi and
Bercik were up shooting at other end again -
I'm convinced that they're shooting very few
birds; Cam spotted a shorebird in P.M.; I
went to get my camera and the shotgun;
Caringi returned with me as gun bearer; I
took several pictures with my 700mm and then
had Caringi shoot the bird; I'm convinced
that it is a Wilson's Phalarope - Cam doesn't
think it is a Phalarope at all; after
movies (Stalag 17 + Captain Sinbad) I got
the large sealed beam light and we went
to other end to count Red-footed Boobies and
check Wedgetails and Bulwer's burrows. -
worked some more on progress report
