P. DeBeuleer 1966 Journal 12 August Heale River Cool Hing (15°25'W, 70°27'N) The dense habitats attracted no special nesting birds - as feet were rather devoid of birds. Raptors were scarce, as might be expected in the absence of humming. The area is more diversified than Barros, but much less so than Cape Thompson. 13 August Spent the day entertaining two photo- graphers from National Geographic & helping out Art McKee, who is very slant bended today. Got the word that Steve is desperate for mosquitoes. To fod the flight is 500 (threw god'). I'll get them from inside the warinigas windows. Spent most of the day near the warinigas and along the thaw (Phil's) Haunts, and saw very few birds - a couple of pectorals by lake Agassiz, no shorebirds on the far side of the river, and scattered Longspurs. In the evening went to the old site of Atha site To see what is left - just of sod found- ations rapidly sprouting grasses and Artemisia trisici, and some foundation shapes. No very evalway, but we didn't try to dog. Found a very rare Euphagus [illegible] Rose. Spent a lot of time using up the film I just got on the sunset.
