stayed with softball!
2 August
Barrow, Alaska
Mutual back-scratching with
Brewer - spent the morning touring
Dr. Scholtes of N.I.H. and Dr. Atkins
of Yale University Med School. Scholtes
was involved in the N.I.H. sponsorship
of the recent meeting in Fairbanks -
hence the special treatment. Typical
bird-watchers. [illegible] Warm day
with South-wind, but few birds
on the uplands. Plovers scattered;
large flock of pectorals in the marsh.
Delivered the bird-watchers to Birnirk
after lunch to watch Eiders, and
returned for tanglefoot change. Quick
change at site [illegible], then to II where
we tried vacuuming fixed areas for spiders,
carabids, etc. Set some more can traps
and took 8 500 cores by central Marsh
tanglefoots and emergence traps. 8
more from Beach Ridge cross up. Just
beyond, track slipped off of drive
wheel so we walked in.
Spend the evening holding my gas
and passive gas, then walked out to
Shooting Station. Several turnstones
as well as Semipalm and red-backs
