6 July Patwayer River, 16 miles SE Cape Sabine, Alaska
in one day. A pair of Rough-leg Hawks were
building a nest over a great of Day's Shoebill
which were also collected. On top of this
mountain Rigits were common and
9 troth an unidentified juvenile which
may be a Wheatean but seems large to
me. Godwits were common along the
stream, some were golden plover, Semi-
palmented Blore. One pair of Cukens
and one pair of Dovitiches were seen.
True and White crane span, Redpolls,
and Pectoral Sundgipes were abundant.
One single, a band of 7, and a herd of 300 Cukin
were seen. No wolf or bear trails seen.
The valley of the Northfork is not as wide
and the vegetation is more lush than
along the main stream. Whether this
accounts for the number of unusual
species occurring there is problematical.
7 July Skinned most of the day. Then went back
to hunt for the robin - missed again.
Very windy. Got a 3D Pileated Warbler. The
shrikes had fledged. In taking pictures of
one young, The 4 hit me on the head
3 times. Marle got 2 Microtus occidentis
in the own trap line. Our Cantron supply is
getting rapidly disiblown and manggy.
