Alameda to San Francisco, California. When I went to the city this morning the tide was partly low. On the sand were large numbers of gulls, largely Larus californicus, with some Larus glauceseens. In the water there were a few Scap ducks and Scoters along the mole, and also three or four Aechmophorus occidentalis. On the day this evening a good number of Larus californicus and Larus glauceseens were seen on the San Francisco side. Along the mole were a few scattering ducks: Scap Ducks, Scoters, and a couple of Clangula Clangula. Near the roundhouse I saw a female Arist- netta valisneria.
