Field Notes Dong Bell May 19, 1988. "tundra-like" its main stip was, and head region. It circled over the top of Prince Island, along with lots of gulls - and made a couple passes at me. Quite close. It probably circled 6-7 times then struck out for San Miguel Island, w/several agitated gulls in tow. Caught 2 female gulls - 293, 294 May 20, 1988 Slept poorly last night. The wind picked up - rocked the boat an awful lot - causing it to pull on the anchor chain which consequently made a loud "thwack" each time. Dwight caught us some clams or scallops, which we feasted on last night - what a consolation! The boat anchored at a cove Taylor Harbor just across from Prince Island, to the lee of San Miguel. We were up at 06:15. Randy offered to take me to Prince in the cano, but Dave said it would be better to wait - nevertheless after some confusion, I was taken over to Prince Began trapping by about 0830. Captured mate-#295 to bird caught yesterday 294. Also caught another gull & 296. Two more gulls caught 297, 298. We off-loaded from the island by about noon.
