489 Gilmore PACIFIC KITTIAKE A 1931 500 or so was on the rough surface of the bay just off Broad Bay. It rose at quite a distance (300- 400 yds) scattered about in the air. A few Bonaparte Gulls were in the flock. It was pretty to watch the large flock of white birds rise up off the surface in a sparkling mass and disintegrate into its individual parts like so many scattering motes of dust in a beam of light. The other flock was resting on the part of Ender Point reef that was exposed above the water. Thin behavior was much like that of the first. Oct. 2 Between Unalaska and English Bay. During the two hour cruise I saw hundreds of these birds, many of them immatures showing The black blotches on the head and neck. The birds were well scattered. Oct. 7 Akutan Pass and Alcan Straits, W. Aleutian S. Kittiwakes were common all over the rough wind swept pass.
