Cephus grylle
July 27 Barrow Alaska - One bird was observed flying in the ocean.
It was all black with white wing patches. No dark line
on front in the wingspits. The bird landed in the
water and began to dive for food.
July 28 In the morning I saw about 20 of this species
flying around and landing among the ice floes.
July 31 In the afternoon I saw 6 of this species flying
and landing on the ocean.
