MacLean 1967 Journal [22 June] this our to the Drum area in the evening to give it a try. Tom and Don tried to catch longspurs while FAP and I went off to photograph buffle. Shot 1 roll of Plus-X and a roll of high-speed ectochrome. Got - I think - 9000 shots of using flashing and H [illegible] Display, then Don and I returned to the lob; Tom and I trapped and banded 4 longspurs and a Baird's sandpiper from the nests. 23 June Barrow, Alaska took off on foot through the Drum area and found a 4-egg baird nest. Walked up along the edge of Family Lagoon to Family Creek, then walked the area S and East of Family Lagoon and Creek. Very quiet. Most amazing are red-backs - they are widely cattered and covering immense areas. Watched a pair of plovers, but failed to find the nest. 87 melanotos are still scattered about but also in flocks. ♀ are just not seen and we have not yet scored up a nest. Phalaropes -
