P. DeBenedictis 1965 24 June Barrow, Alaska only a little from yesterday and the aspect changed was is increasing softness of the snow. It was somewhat noisier than yesterday but far from being wild, and we saw a fair amount of shorebird display. Hemmings all over but only ½ what was earlier on the beach ridge. Paseines very quiet. General impression of breeding behavior is that the 4's are not yet gready to breed although, the 7's are. Fewer birds far out today than yesterday and more Baird's closer to the Ath. In the afternoon I was taken to the W end of Pitketh's Census plot and walked across Home's Marsh to the Baut Pt. Snowy Owl Nest, which I didn't check. I went down Elsonbogor To Wohlsehlag Sough and then back to the S part of the Beach Ridge and up to the N. end of Pitketh's plot. The wind was strong and this was a fine mint that played havoc with my optical equipment the whole time. Activity was not good, dunlin being the most vocal species and thus were fewer shorebirds apparent than when I went out on the evening of June 22. Found two new jaeger nests each with one egg and [illegible] ones and well 3. Saw 2 suspicious acting long spurs but found no nests. There were a number of "way out" birds along the bogon, including some very vocal Sabrin's gulls but little else evituing was noted. Lots of Red Phalaropes. On the way out noted a large group of Pomaine Toreges
