Oct. 7 Akutan Pass, W. Aleutian Is.
I am fairly certain that I saw two today while crossing the pass. The dark head was the identifying mark one appeared to have a white ring around its neck. Both were alone; the first was seen at the mouth of Walakuska Bay headed west & the other was seen in the middle of the pass, headed South. Both were flying about 150 yds. in the air.
