Along the mole this morning the tide was quite high; a few ducks and small gebes were seen on the water (with the exception of one) they were quite distant.) A flock of about a dozen cormorants passed to the northwestward. They flew close to the water for a long distance, then suddenly rose a dozen feet, then flew above upstairs inside on the steamer, and saw several a few gulls about, Larus glau- ceus and Larus californicus, both immature and adult. Two ducks were seen flying northward close to the water, northward. Two flocks of about a dozen cormorants passed going northward. One flock passed very close to the steamer, and from the color of the gular sacs, I would say they were Phalacrocorax dilophus. Nov. 24, 1907. San Leandro Bay, Alameda, Cal. Conditions: - Clear; warm; 2:30 P.M.; now I saw several Larus philadelphia fluttering over the water off on the bay. Nov. 25, 1907.
