mole and seawall. I saw two loons on the water. While going down the mole, I saw 1 gull and 1 small land bird flying east over the water. On the bay Larus glaucaceus and Larus caifornicus followed the steamer as usual. 5 to 5:30 P.M. Conditions about the same. A good many Larus glaucaceus and occasional Larus californicus were about the bow of the boat while in the ship on the San Francisco side. An immature one of the former stood for quite a while on the deck. I saw a young Larus californicus standing on a pile with several young Larus glaucaceus. I saw two adult gulls which appeared to be Larus argentatus. Along the mole I noticed a number of ducks on the water, some individuals being quite close, but in the gathering dusk it was impossible to distinguish the species. January 29, 1909. Alameda to San Francisco, California. 7:30 to 8:30 A.M. It being foggy this morning, I saw no ducks along the seawall and only five along the mole, one, a Scarp Duck, that close enough to be easily distinguished. I saw a small grebe close to the end of the mole. On the bay a good number of Larus glaucaceus and one or two Larus californicus
