Maclan 1965 Journal grounds displays. In same area - large group of golden plovers, many, many phalaropes, group of ca. 7 dowitchers. Farther out into marsh we see many gaggars. Marsh was more active than I have ever seen it. Saw unknown plover like bird which fits nothing in Peterson; about size of knot, colors like a big wheatear - very white below, uniformly grey above, a broad dark line through the eye, and some form of upper breast marking or coloration. Has a white band at the proximal end of the tail, or possibly rump. Spent the evening at Chamber of Commerce meeting getting Schindler out of office. Finally succeeded - and will now resign from the Chamber. 30 June Barrow, Alaska Paul saw mysterious plover and concurred in description so out we went to collect the beast. Pikelka got one shot just as the bird flew, but missed. Bird took off for far away lands. Did see it well enough to positively identify it
