San Felipe, S.L. Lower Calif. Mexico. March 27, 1926. To kill a Lesser Scap which floated pretty to some dead gulls which Huey had shot and the Huey himself who was swimming far out after a crippled tern. I also killed 3 Elegant Terns and 1 immature Hermann's Gull as it flew near a dead tern. We also saw some Caspian Terns at which Lamb shot for partially crippled but could not get. B Pelicans, Snowy Gulls, California Gulls (of which Lamb shot an immature one), Ring-Billed Gulls, Black Brant, Lesser Scap, Royal Terns and Snow Geese (seen by Mr. Huey) are around here. Saw a Great Blue Heron and a flock of small birds at late evening, at low tide.
