P. DeBenedictis 1965 17 July Bearow, Alaska finding birds only along IIA in its ponds and II-III, finding a flock of Pectorals. There were first, more Pectorals and double than Phalaropes around! Saw a Peregrine Falcon. The 1 y.g. pup, nest empty, saw one egg, and I couldn't find the Semipols in a very brief search. Some of the shorebird chicks can really run. Hamilton said some of the Hazelnut nests are building and went to 1 and 6. There was nothing at 6, but at least 1 Semipol in the area, nor anything in the heap. Nest trees (bald cypress) and the young were just basking at Nest 1. Saw two flocks of Eiders, one that looked to be 5 or 6 eiders or terns and one unidentifiable. 18 July Rained almost all day. Didn't go out. Finished calculations. 19 July Rained am., more or less clear in the afternoon. Wind from west and damp all day. Ice blew back in in the early afternoon and really going by in the evening. In the afternoon tried to take weasel to set out, IAT, IAS, but it overheated before we got event to #ACS so we walked to meadow lake and then back and I got my vehicle back to camp. The area is about like late June in terms of water, and very few shorebirds on the ground. Two of the nests have hatched out. Saw a flock of Oldsquaws and a h-T. Jaeger by meadow lake and the snowy owl nest is really doing well, 4y., (almost ready to fly). In the evening watched the boat for a while, seeing loon, oldsquaw, Taleids (?), Arctic Tern, h-T. Jaeger, Glaucous and a probable I.S. green Herring Gulls, and 27 Eiders.
