J.P. Myers 1975 Journal Grids 2+3 5 August (cont) (although some of the juvenile alpina had moved away into the pond region); P. melanotus with chicks (plus one set of juveniles) largely in the pond and low grassy region of the grid; P. phaeopus f. concentrated in the pondy region, still with chicks, although several juveniles were apparent and there seemed to be a few 0-3 days parental responsibility. The most remarkable development of the day was not reflected by grid tallies: hundreds of juvenile pinnula now are foraging in the Britton area, the edges of Seattle's Middle Salt Lagoon, and in the mouth of Both Creek. They appear to be restricted to the shore and near shore areas; however one did fly over as I was censusing the [illegible]. 1BP area, Grids 2,3,4 4 August spent the morning gathering micro habitat site data on felicarius, melanotus, phaeopus, and alpina. The weather did an amazing thing, becoming sunny, rapidly warm and mosquito-ish. No wind. Temperature was ~45°F. During the afternoon I first went in to Bannock for May, June + July weather summaries (see weather acct), and then returned to [illegible] lake area for more survey-points. As I drew up Russell G. [illegible] who had been there all afternoon, signalled frantically for me to stop. He had found a juvenile Calidris ferruginea, which we were able to relocate without any trouble (see [illegible] acct). Transact 135 5 August began censusing transect 5 at 0735. Light NW wind, 100% clouds. It rained last night even enough to fill puddles in [illegible] area along the road. Sampled transect 5 from 20 direction - perhaps a mistake because the jaycar pair bounded me over much of the more productive area (units 10-17), spooking duvivier. However I believe I was successful in recording them properly.
