Field Notes Doug Bell April 26, 1989 of Santa Catalina & San Clemente to east & south, and way in distance to the west, the long form of San Nicolas Island. Back at camp saw a very yellow-green flycatcher, at first thought it was a yellow wagtail from the way it flew. It seemed to have an exceptionally long tail, and was larger than an average Empidonax. Lots of Meadowlarks & Horned Larks! Saw fledged young horned larks. At night we managed to to catch a Xantus Murrelet by hand. Their voices clearly heard throughout early evening & morning. Barn Owls inspected my camp. April 27, 1989 Went to west slopes for gull trapping. Scoured about 1000 nests, found only 4 with eggs! (3 two-egg nests, 1 one-egg). Trapped gulls off the 2 egg nests -- only four birds. DAB 442-445. Lots of work for so few birds. April 28, 1989 We were picked up by the Park Service boat at about 13:00. Stopped off at Anacapa I. on way. Arrived Ventura 16:00.
