Nov 25 San Francisco Bay Shore, Albany & E. Richmond,
alameda & Contra Costa cos., Calif.
11:30-12:30 - I made the following count
of water birds in the area from just N.of
base of St. Isabel (but not going off main
highway, so :. missing some birds well out
on the sides of the peninsula) S. to Fleming
Dt. (N. end of Golden Gate Fields Race track).
The tide was going out rapidly & in fact the
great mass of birds toward the end were too
far away to identify as to species, hence
the ?? on the nos. of some. Entries under species
accounts for those marked : *
Horned Grebe - 1
Eared Grebe - 6+
Western Grebe - 6+
Pintail
2500 (careful estimate)
Canvasback
300 est.
Lesser Scaup

{15,000 diving ducks
* Golden eye (sp?) - 34 well out in bay,
majority prob. there}
