Conditions:- SE wind; rough on bay; rainy.
In the evening practically all the gulls
following the steamer across were adult Larus californicus. I saw two or three immature Larus
glancecens and one immature Larus californicus.
There were practically no ducks noted
along the mole, the majority having retired to
the sloughs for shelter from the strong wind
and heavy sea.
Mar. 20, 1906.
Alameda to and from San Francisco, bal.
Conditions:- Wind variable; rainy; cold.
Quite a number of Scap Ducks and
Oidemus perspicillata along the mole both
in the morning and evening. They are quite
tame now.
Larus glancecens was quite common
on the piles at Alameda mole, they were all
immature birds. Adult Larus californicus were the commonest birds about the
San Francisco side and on the way over.
