Childs 1958 24 22 July Pittrageal River, 7 mi SE Cape Sabine, Alaska about to pick up the transects. Had flycatching during the night- probably from the green, moldy meat. 23 July Picked up traps and packed as we expected a plane which didn't come. Skied most of day. 24 July Shinned falcons all day. Pete brought back 3 Red-spotted Bluethroats. No place again. 25 July Went upstream to spot where Pete got Bluethroat. Shot 3 Fox Sparrows; saw others a lot, least one Bluethroat. Found 2 Redpoll nests, one/5 year old one/6 eggs. Failed to find "Yellow Warbler" Pete saw yesterday. Overcast & rain most of day. 26 July Pete and I walked up the creek to Scott's and Delwil Lakes & its source in a large, narrow, shaped valley, a very long hike. We neglected to take food so cooked and ate 2 Turnstones and a Rock Ptarmigan, very good. Collected 4 Redpolls. Wolf & fox tracks seen and wolf killed Caribou. Longspurs moving through in numbers. 27 July Sunday- released after skinny yesterday's birds. Pete walked to coast and marmot den. 28 July Packed up gear as there is now about 6" more water wit than when we arrived. Warm day with no wind or mosquitoes when we left. Took off my shirt to get a tan! while rowing. Had
