72. Actodromas minutilla. A few. Squatarola squatarola. A few. Macrorhamphus scolopaceus. Two. Ardea herodias. A few. Rallus obsoletus. One. Melospiza cinerea. A few. An Uria troile (young) was killed near Bay Farm Island Bridge. At home - rest of day. Nycticorax nycticorax. Passer domesticus. Sep. 10, 1904. Alameda to San Francisco, cal. Conditions:- 7:00 A.M. to 8:00 A.M. Cool; overcast; neat wind. Along the R.R. route through town I saw a good many Passer domesticus. On the exposed sand to the south of the mole I saw a great many gulls, - some Larus californicus. On the water, near the mole two birds dived as the train passed. I think they were either Aethomorphus oc- cidentalis or Gavia pacifica. On the bay a good many gulls followed the ferry boat across, among these were some Larus califor- nicus, the others I do not know. I saw a few Larus heermanni and no Larus occidentalis. Three Phalacrocorax passed us off Goat Island, they were going E. San Francisco to Alameda, cal.
