Conditions: - Moderate temperature; westerly
wind; overcast in morning and evening.
Several ducks noted along the mole this
evening, and on the exposed beach quite
a few shore birds, including some that
looked like curlew.
On the bay this evening young Larus
glaucescens and adult Larus californicus
were abundant. Several Larus philadelphian (some or two with white heads)
were observed about the ferry slips on
the San Francisco side. One or two flew
very close to the boat.
Last evening I noted five or six Nycticeorax mycticorax flying over the house
tops, quite high in the air, going towards
the southeast.

San Francisco to Antioch, Cal.
On the way to Oakland Mole Larus glaucescens and
Larus californicus were very common. Quite a number
of Larus philadelphian were also seen.
