Maclean 1967 Journal write notes. 24 July Barrow, Alaska Dr. Pitelka left for Berkeley on the morning flight. After his departure Don, Tom, and I went out to the NE corner of Central Marsh. Don and I did a habitar transect each while Tom looked for longspurs. Good weather, but few birds - a golden plover with two black-bellied plovers in the marsh, alpine with large juveniles in a drier part of the marsh - no large flocks. Afternoon was tanglefoot day, with our usual weasel problems. Got out to AACS but returned because of sound of grinding bedrings. Next weasel made it from the shop to our lab, then wouldn't start. Finally made it in the thro - too late to do much but rush out and change the bearings. Spent the evening at home cursing at APL. 25 July Barrow, Alaska Spent the entire day transecting in good weather. In the morning Dan and I went to Wohlslag Slough and area South. Some difficulty caused by lack of agreement between the map and the course of the slough, but nothing serious.
