P. De Benedictis 1965 24 July Barrow, Alaska Birds on the ocean or near lines IV - phalaropes and jaegers at the lathe only. There was a lot more action at lines III, where there were at least 2 pairs of semipalmated with young and a pair of dunlin with young plus a flock of Golden Plover and 3-4 apparently non-breeding Semipalmated. Heard two Ptarmigan, loud. The jaegers, nuts unchanged except that another marker gone and can't find traces of the nest though the pair present. Bob had the "runs" and took the vessel in, I walked in later. Shots from duck camp in the evening and night. A few vocationally and birdwatching said he had seen 2 Buff hawks that he thought had young near VOTH and Hamilton, he and I went out about 9 to look, without success. The area was the flat just west of Bostline and his birds probably migrants. We saw 2 pairs of golden plover that acted like they had young + 3-4 pairs of Dunlin and Semipalmated - even though no nests had been found in the area - saw 2 large semipalmated chicks and the 15' phalarope chicks of this year. Found a jaeger nest and another was empty, though jaegers present, and most surprisingly saw 3 White Plovers. The 6-egg Steller Eider nest OK. The pool nest with 5 young in the pool, 1 o'clock - 15/2 evenings along the edge. Got in about 1 AM. and wrote notes. 25 July A woken early by McLean and by 7:30 Bob and I were off to try and catch up with him in one of the old, beat-up vessels - after picking up trap lines III+IV.
