Nov. 14, 1907. Alameda to San Francisco, bal. Conditions:—Clear; moderate temperature; light wind; about 8:00 A. M. On the water by the mole were quite a few (10?) Larus californicus, and many more were seen & when I went out on deck on the San Francisco side of the bay. When near the end of the mole I saw two cormorants and a flock of about fifteen Nucles going northwestward, flying in moral style. Nov. 15, 1907. I went to San Francisco on the 6:05 A. M. train from High Street. I rode inside the steamer until close to San Francisco; there I saw a good many Larus californicus about the docks. I saw one bird which looked to me to be an immature Larus glaucescens. It was a beauti- ful clear morning, Belvedere, Tanwaldpais, etc., showing up quite; slight north wind. Nov. 16, 1907
