CHILD'S 1951 June 27 Point Barrow Alaska (Cnt) rests. It was an immense + tiring job but well worth the effort. We watched a very interesting territorial fight between 2 old-squaws on a pond at 5 seals fourth quadrant. Golden flowers were common today. Phalaropes still flocking. June 28 In the morning I made a Gov. Sparrow trap while the others slept in. We set out the teepee and hunted in the p.m. over near the salt pond. I got a spectacled Eider. Very few phalaropes in that area. We skinned & wrote notes in the evening. June 29 The morning was spent at the point checking The Snow Bunting situation. I made some measel sets there & done more south of ARL in the p.m. Frank started the 24 hour cycle of the longspur on LW at 1900. Gil & hunted on the ridge near the gypelins getting a golden flower + eggs, a Ruddy Turnstone & with B.P., longspur, & phalaropes. June 30 I relieved Frank & spent the day watching the longspurs. Gil checked banded birds of ARL in am & hunted in p.m. July 1 Slept in & wrote letters in a.m. McCarthy commented recently on the fact that the ridge we are working on was at one time Pt. Barrow and the marsh is an old lake bed. May
