November 30, 1907. Alameda to San Francisco, bal. Conditions: - cool; no wind; clear. Along the mole a few ducks and small grebes were seen. On the San Francisco side Larus glancecens, mostly young, were abundant, while Larus californicus was considerably less so. Some several of the Slancous-winged Gulls sat on the water until the steamer was within a few feet of them. I saw a pair of young ones fighting while sitting on the water. Dec. 1, 1907, Alameda, bal. Conditions: - Frosty early in morning; warm; clear; no wind rest day. On Central Ave. this morning at 7:15 I saw about 30 Euphagus cyanoccephalus sitting on telegraph wires, all punched fairly obvly. In my back yard I saw two or three dull- plumaged Sanderica anduboni, feeding in peach fig trees, and one on ground. Saw one hanging head downwards as do Eos bamarchyeli.
