Just after leaving Alameda mole I
saw two flocks of ducks or guse of about
30 each flying northward very high in
the air in V-formation.
On the San Francisco side there evere
number of gulls of both the above species
on the water, some in shelter of the piles.
I saw three Glanceous-winged Gulls stand-
ing on the piles, all facing to windward
with heads close to shoulders and tails
held horizontally.
Nov. 20, 1907,
Alameda to San Francisco, cal.
Conditions: - cold; morning; clear; light winds.
Larus glanccescens and Larus californicus
on day and along mole. Two cormorants
going northward. Several ducks going
southward yesterday morning.
Along the mole this morning I saw-
a few Clangula clangula and one or two small
grebes. The Golden-eyes, although at a great dis-
tance from the mole, flew as train passed.
