February 12, 1909. Aldmeda, California. Several Zonotrichia leucophrys were seen about the yard to-day. At the foot of the street I saw half a dozen Larus californicus, young and adult, flying. I saw six ducks fly into San Leandro Bay from the main bay. February 13, 1909. Alameda to San Francisco, California. Along the seawall and mole I saw one or two gulls, 1 good sized flock of ducks and a number of stragglers, one Columbus septentrionalis, and several AChrysophorus occidentalis, these last near the end of the mole. On the return trip this evening gulls (Larus californicus and Larus gladiaceus) were common about the San Francisco waterfront. I saw one riding on top of the forward wheel house of an incoming steamer. On the bay I saw a number flying and on the water. I saw twenty three ducks in 2 flocks southbound high up. Eight cormorants passed south with usual flight, A single Phalacrocorax auritus crossed our bow southward bound, flying close to the water in a perfectly straight line.
