Maken 1959 Uria lomvia July 29 Pitinegena Birt. Recent rough water has brought in a number of carcasses of the Murre. In a 3 mile walk along the beach I saw upwards of a dozen. These were pretty well eaten but I found one entire carcass & brought it in for a skeleton. I also flushed 3 Murres resting on the beach. All 3 chose positions against the base of the bluff forest. One was just asleep when found, squatting with head down on the ground. I approached 4 ten feet of it & I believe could have gone closer before waking it if I wanted to. Aug 1 One seen in lagoon at mouth of river resting & preening on bar. One also seen here yesterday evening, likely the same one. Aug 7 Large scale movement of Murres along coast heading East. Saw several flocks in afternoon while there from 2 on hour a 2. In evening it was calm & flocks of Murres flew low steadily for 2 hours while we were there flocks estimated at 30-68 birds & a few even larger.
