"Copied" fully 500, on telegraph wires in Thamesido. 27 Ring-billed Gulls came for a drink; all showing molting primaries from molting tailfeathers, all the all but 3 are dark-plumaged they two cannot be birds of this year's hatching. Early migrating non-breeders? On the bunch of tules are a few tule wrens, evidently feeding young. Many presumably my sparrows and Bryant Marsh Sparrows out on Salicornia marshes; also tracks of Clapper Rail in plenty in mud of sloughlots, and Bryant saw one of the birds. I saw an adult Marsh Hawk twice carrying over the marsh in usual fashion. Butcherbird round windmills. Many Red-winged Blackbirds about; evidently a roosting place on Tule patch.
