adult birds. One immature Larus argentatus was seen. On the trip across Larus glaucescens were continually flying about the boat. Draw a few Larus californicus. Larus canus or Larus brachyrhynchus was common. Seven loons passed to the south, also a few ducks. Saw one sandpiper feeding in a plough near the roundhouse. FEB - 7 1905 Route, time, and conditions the same as yesterday. Ducks, mostly Blangula clangula, were abundant along the sea- wall and mole in both morning and evening. Drove over on the after deck. Larus glaucescens followed the steamer in great numbers — very few adult birds, — with an occasional Larus californicus. We ran across a few Larus canus or Larus brachyrhynchus. While coming along the mole, saw a flock of about fifty Phala- crocorax flying north-west in their wavelike manner. After the boat left the slip more flocks were seen proceeding in a similar direction. Off the south-east end of Goat Island we came across two large flocks on the water, — one of a hundred gulls, the other about fifty. There were a good many gulls on the water, principally Larus canus or Larus brachyrhynchus. About twenty loons passed going north- west, also a few ducks. On the San Francisco side Larus glau- cescens and Larus canus or Larus brachyrhynchus were abundant. A few Larus californicus were seen. In the evening Larus glaucescens and Larus canus or Larus brachyrhynchus were abundant; three or four Larus californicus were seen. Seven loons were seen going south-east while we were just off the mole. One Ardea herodias and one grebe were seen along the mole. FEB - 8 1905
