Iomich 1953 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.
