If the Uber is there and conditions are promising I will return to try to record surfbirds; otherwise I'll go on up to Barrow. Spent the early morning working on my overlap paper and redoing. [Note: I just looked out of the window and saw a robin go up under the roof of the cabin just to the SW. Went over and located a nest with 4 eggs.] At 9:00 went down to lower camp to get Dale and Sandy, and the ptarmigan counters headed out toward Mastodon Dome. Took the pickup to Eagle Summit. Spent the rest of the morning watching 4 surfbirds there. Found another new species - grey-crowned rosy finch on steep talus slope on SO. side of Puzzlement Hill. Returned to camp to get out of the wind while eating and writing notes. Went up again later, but could not relocate the surfbirds. Did find a pair of tame rock ptarmigan and photographed there. Again saw rosy finches there. Walked around the hill, then had to hurry back to have truck for Dale and Sandy to return to lower camp. the
