Field Notes Doug Bell May 12, 1988 Drove with Dwight Harvey up to Point Reyes National Seashore. We went to the end of the paved on Tomales Point, and hiked north along the point about 2 miles to the trail down to the last beach along the west side of Tomales Point. This is the same beach where I had shot gulls with Fred Sheldon & Dwight last year; it's just north of McCleer's Beach. The weather was clear and sunny in the Bay area, but when we got to the Seashore a front came in, wind and drizzle made over to our position. The winds were in the wrong direction, out of the South-East. Consequently, the gulls rounded the point a couple 100 yards offshore, instead of flying right by when the winds are North-West. So the shooting was for a few inbetween. Plus, I missed a lot - 11 shots for 4 birds - one I shot twice before it finally came down (JAB 278-281). Several Ravens and Red-tails, few Brown Pelicans, lots of Calif. Quail.
