Nest quillus 19 with 2 cold eggs, Gradults nearby. Saw 4 Golden Plovers by lines 4 and 5 long-tail Jaeger and a 2nd year Herring Gull with the Glaucese gulls in the Barrow Dump. Watched the ocean for a while, then went in.

The powairies nest behind AACS with one egg and passillus nest 25 (note up). Saw no semipalms in the area at all.

In addition to the species listed I saw one bird that was probably a Tuffed
