Mabu 1959 Calcarius lappornicus July 22 Longippus juvenil & adult, have been taking shelter in the pile of driftwood outside the tent. Seem to roost in at & feed around the area using that as protective hiding place. This secretive habit of the longippus & other dikey birds may be very important for the gazers as far as availability of prey is concerned. Aug 3 Should make a note now if young longippus. I see them commonly in small groups in protected areas like Bachal Drough. Here I flush them in 2,5-3,5-or 6's as I walk along. They also occur in groups along the rocky ridge & about tent. On most of Tundra they are scarce or absent. This same concentration of young & probably adults in latter July was noted at Kaalab where they congregated mostly in willow though some remained in shrub willow Arndin. [illegible]
