Nyetea scandiaca
july 24 Point Barrow, Alaska
About 7 scattered between Britton Manor and
1/2 mile south.
july 27 One in drum area. Yesterday a young owl
was delivered to the lab, said to have been
found walking down a street of the base.
The owl is well feathered out about wings
and tail and in good condition. It is
better developed and stronger than the
one already caged. Checking with Howard
Hard I find it is not one of the 5 he took
from near nest #3.
july 29 No birds, adult or young, in vicinity of
nest #1, as if the successful juvenile has
been able to get about well and has left
the area, perhaps, however, not in flight.
Aug. 8 Three among high polygons 1 mile W. of Vothi
station. No nest here.
