Feb. 6, 1908. Alameda to and from San Francisco, bal. Birds were the same on the bay and along the mole as during the past two days. Feb. 8, 1908. Alameda to and from San Francisco, bal. Gulls and ducks were about the same as usual, although a strong SE wind was blowing. In the evening there did not seem to be as many ducks along the mole as usual. The following have been seen lately:- Odenia deglandi, Odenia perspicillata, Scap ducks, Aristonetta valisneria, blangula clangula. Feb. 9, 1908. Alameda to and from San Francisco, bal conditions:- Early afternoon; cool; strong west wind. Not as many ducks along the mole as usual. Many flying about, chiefly in flocks; sea fairly rough. On the way over there were a good many gulls on the water south of Goat Island. Larus californicus and Larus glaucus as usual, fly- ing much more sweepingly and gracefully than is the general case when there is SE wind. Last evening I saw several small land birds proceeding eastward along the south side of the mole, although there was a strong southeast wind blowing. Feb. 10, 1908.
