R.D. Hamilton 1965 Journal Barrow Alaska. 22 July A flask of about 50 Golden Plover were observed near lines IVA and IVB. In the evenings Steve helped me run the traplines. 23 July Th. day was mostly overcast with ground fog in the evening. The wind was from the NE at 10-15 MPH. I ran the traps in the morning and picked them up at night. No unusual birds were seen. 24 July Th. day was partly cloudy. The wind was from NE at 10-15 MPH. The temperature was 35-45°. In the afternoon, Paul and I set out lines IVA and IVB. We started to put out lines IIIA and IIIB but I got sick. Paul finished putting them out. About 2100 Paul and I and a visiting bird-watcher went out looking for Buff-breasted Sandpipers which the visitor saw earlier. We were unsuccessful but did manage to find young of Golden Plover, Semipalmated Sandpiper and the first young of the Red Phalarope. 25 July The day was mostly clear with some scattered clouds. The temperature was warm and I was weak without a coat, about 50°F. The wind was less than 5 MPH. Paul and I went on a trip S at Lake Ikakowik after we ran the traplines. We frequently saw bird visits young. The populations of Red Phalarope and Dunlin seemed higher than around Barrow while the population of Semipalmated Sandpipers was definitely lower. A small colony (about 15 pairs) of Siberian Gulls were found. Two pairs of Arctic Tern nested there. A colony of 2 pairs of Golly were found. A Dowitcher was seen with four chicks-
