Field Notes Doug Bell June 18, 1989, Caught a female in trap over nest #1 (040 502). She was the loud one. Also has darker 1st tips! So much for pure Glencross-wings in Olympia. Drove from Olympia to Neah Bay, WA. Arrived in Neah Bay about 19:00. Was sitting in MAKAH CAFE with a view of the bay when an ad. Bald Eagle came stooping down upon an Osprey. The Osprey dropped something which the Eagle picked out of the water. As the eagle flew away the Osprey made one long shallow strop at. The eagle landed on an old piling + sat for about an hour. Could not see if it ate anything. June 19, 1989 Met Bob Paine + his group (Tim Wosten, Sarah, Liz) from U of W. at Al's Big Salmon at 12:15. We got the stuff out, and Al took us out in his dory to Tatoosh Island, off Cape Flattery. Rain a rough water. But out the island, partial clearing. Once again, loads of gulls loafing at the beach (+ 200). Pelagic ternants on the rocks. Bands of crows about. We got set up by about 16:00. Bob caught a 15 lbs King Salmon for dinner. I explored the island. Tree, Violet-green + Barn Swallows about the buildings. Apparently the Barn Swallows are having a rough time nest building because of the dry spring. Song +
