MacLean 1968 Journal 15 May Eagle Creek, Mile 105 - Steele Highway, Alaska. Arrived in Fairbanks at 2:00 A.M. Tuesday morning, 14 May. Eona left for Barrow with Bobby Fischer this A.M. - Since the Barrow airport is under repair and Wien is unsure of flying. Spent the morning in Fairbanks assembling gear - got a series of #2 bands from Dr. WEST. Departed Fairbanks about 1:00 P.M. I rode in a Fish and Game truck with Bob Weeden's assistant - Jerry McGowan - and M.A. from Missouri. Weeden took his truck, with Sandy Kogl. Saw a Lesser yellowlegs in a shallow pond at mile 28. Bird was quite tame, but flew away when I threw a rock. Next stop at a small lake: Eared grebes (4), northern phalaropes (4), widow, sculpin, bufflehead. All along the west part of the trip - many pintail, bufflehead. 1 ♀ Barrow's goldeneye. Saw a pipit foraging on floating ice which covered one end of a small lake. Many tree sparrows, white-crowned, tree swallows, robins. Fairbanks is virtually snow- free, with ice still on shallow ponds.

Maclean 1968 Journal (15 May) Eagle Creek is, perhaps, 40% exposed. the valley is N-S here, with the camp in an old mining camp along the creek. they only occupy one cabin as cooking base and headquarters. this is right at timber-line, so most of the study area is above. (Camp is 2200 feet - see map) Spruce go up the valleys, and willows along the stream. things I forgot: cut Eagle Creek Road House, ca. 3 mi. down the Steese, saw an adult golden eagle overhead and a marten running around the camp. On the way up the Highway - ca. mile 86 - saw a moose. Ate dinner of Moose-burger, then sat around talking until an early rack-time, planning an early start tomorrow. 16 May Eagle Creek - Mile 105 Steese Highway, Alaska Up at 1:30.... they mean early around here. the idea is to work the early morning when the ptarmigan are calling and the snow is hard. It was - temp. around 25° when we started at 3:00 A.M. Spent the first two hours looking for ptarmigan with Weeder's crew on the area S.E. of camp, just across Eagle Creek. Saw lots of tree sparrows, red-polls, occasional white-crows in willows. Robins all over

Maclean 1968 Journal (16 May) whenever there is an alder bush or a little spruce. Saw some varied thrushes spaced out and singing along in spruce stands along drainage bottoms. 1 willow ptarmigan on talin pile in Eagle Creek. Many rock ptarmigan spaced our over area. At 5:00 A.M. sighted a shorebird flying high and rapid. Resigned from the ptarmigan counters and took out after the bird. It landed on a fell-field ca. 1/2 mile away. When I reached there saw a pair of golden plovers, and, seconds thereafter, a lone surfbird standing quietly looking at me. Bird quickly flew away. Spent the rest of the day, until noon, searching the horse-shoe ridge complex south of camp looking for more surfbirds. Saw a total of 5, assuming no repeats. Also saw a flock of 5 golden plovers. Many lapland larks - both in flocks and beginning to disperse. Also heard larks, water pipits in upland country. Returned to camp about noon feeling darn tired. At dinner, wrote 2 quick letters for Bob to take down to Fairbanks, then to the raeck. Heard snipe today, too. (after-thought.)

MacLean 1968 Journal 17 May Eagle Creek, Alaska Rain began during the night and continued most of the day. Up at 2:00 a.m. for breakfast, but after looking at the rain and fog hanging over the ridges and the soft snow to be crossed, decided against it and went back to bed. The ptarmigan counters went out, but came back after a few hours soaked and exhausted. We all ate lunch and they changed into dry clothes for another try with snow-shoes. I took the truck, planning to go to Eagle Summit. The rain turned to snow immediately above camp, and 2 miles up the road I found 2" of fresh snow and white-out conditions, with no birds to be seen. Around camp birds are singing some- heron snipe display again- but not too much going on. Saw a ? marsh hawk on the road just above camp. Returned for a while, then set out on snowshoes. Went E. to junction of Eagle and Mastodon Creeks. Left the snowshoes and climbed the slope across the creek, N. of camp. This is mainly ericaceous, with scattered spruce and alder thickets. The State Highway runs along the crest of the hill. Lots of Longspurs - both settled birds

MacLean 1968 Journal (17 May) and a flock of 60 - mostly [illegible]. Above the road there is a fair amount of Dryas-shale habitat which may support surfbirds, but only Longspurs and Horned Larks today. Walked about 1 mile up the road until most of the ground was covered with fresh snow, then returned the same route. Saw 3 golden plovers on the hill - all in excellent plumage and looked like [illegible]. Northern shrike in a tall alder. Heard a [illegible] pass over. After dinner (Eagle Creek chile & beans) Jerry spotted a Sage phoebe on the wire just outside of the cabin. By that time the creek was flowing rapidly and noisily. Heard what may have been a wandering tattler just before crawling into the sack. 18 May Eagle Creek, Alaska Out at 3:00 A.M. and it was already (still?) above freezing. Took the truck up to Eagle Summit and spent the morning (i.e. until 7:30 A.M.) walking upland there. After climbing the hill on the SE side of the highway there is extensive flat ridge-top plateau habitat that looks good for surfbirds. This morning it was covered by a thin layer of fresh snow. Longspurs (many) and Horned Larks (fewer) were carrying on. Walked about 2 miles from the road - saw 1 surfbird flying over and

MacLean 1968 Journal (18 May) heard an alarm note. On the way back found a group of surfbirds displaying vigorously. Spent the remainder of the morning watching this, then returned to camp and recorded all in notes. New birds of the morning: slate-colored junco, short-eared owl. After a short sleep went out and climbed hill NE of Mastodon Fork. On the way found fresh moose tracks in the snow very near and headed toward camp. The top of the hill is a very flat plateau about 200 m. in diameter (across), covered by Dryas. Saw no surfbirds there. Not wanting to be skunked after climbing that darn hill, continued on cross a saddle towards next ridge - another flat-topped one. Finally found a surfbird displaying beside this one. Located him (it) on the ground and sat and watched for a while. Learned some more. Returned to camp at 3:00. This afternoon was tropical. Once I was out of the (light) wind had to take off my jacket and heavy shirt. Snow was very soft and disappearing rapidly. Saw the first bumblebee of the season, and a number of wooly caterpillars. New bird: fox sparrow Washed myself (!) then ate dinner outside basking in the sun. Just after we

Had coffee until 9:00, then to bed. 5 May Eagle Creek, Alaska 2:00 A.M. came too darn early today. Talked my self out of getting up, and didn't get into the field until 6:30. Started our fully clothes for the cold. Shed my jacket going up the spur road and my shirt soon thereafter. It was plain hot. Walked up the highway to Eagle Summit. Saw 6 pectoral sandpipers, several board sandpipers along the road; 9 caribou at the summit. Found 1 surf bird N. of the road, then crossed the road and climbed the hill to the south. Watched 1/2 hour of unintelligible surfbird activity there, and stayed 45 minutes after the birds left to see if they would return. They didn't. Walked back along the ridges trying to find them and didn't see any surfbirds until I found a pair on the SE side of Center Hill. Watched these for a while, then returned to camp. Saw the first wheatear - a displaying 87. Returned for dinner and field notes, then the rack for an earlier start tomorrow.

MacLean 1968 Journal 20 May Eagle Creek, Alaska Out at 3:45 A.M. in what looked like another warm day. Left my jacket behind and later regretted it. Walked up the road to Eagle Summit and climbed (now christened) Puzzlement Hill. Saw and heard no surfbirds. Walked out ridge running NE from the hill and found surfbird activity there. Spent the morning watching this, then returned to Puzzlement Hill. Still no ship, too cold with no jacket to return via the ridge route, so I walked back on the road watching territory No. 4 road for surfbirds and counting ptarmigan. Returned to write some letters, then rode to Miller House to mail three and buy some supplies. This is a roadhouse operated by an amazingly spry old couple - the man is 91 and the woman not far behind. Saw Canada jays there - nothing else news. Drove on up the valley to Central to have our spare repaired. Watched for grouse along the road, but no luck. Returned for dinner and notes. New bird: tree swallows - seen from Puzzlement Hill. More wheatears displaying. Found a pair of poached ptarmigan along the road just above

Overcup was about completed, but no lining and no eggs yet. 21 May Eagle Creek, Alaska the winds came up in the night, and we awoke to Barrow weather - just below freezing and about 20 knots of wind from the East. Slept in ... until 5:00 a.m., then went out to Center Hill. Snow was crusted - hard enough to walk on, but slippery. The winds increased as I went up the hill, circling toward the SE. When I got near the top found a cloud spilling over the sample behind the hill. Looked for the surf birds Jerry saw yesterday, but no luck. Couldn't hear much of anything through my cap, parked loo, and the wind. Nothing was displaying up - don't think I would have learned much even if I found the birds - except how many were associated together. Returned to camp to eat and wait for better weather. Found Sandy waiting in the cabin, accidentally separated from the other stormigen counters. After a while drove up the road to Jim, Jerry and Dale waiting for her. Returned to the cabin.

Maclsa 1968 Journal 21 May) never went down so we tried to occupy ourselves cutting and splitting wood and redoing. Heard (I think - if fit Weeden's description) a wanderip tattler passing the cabin. Saw, for the first definite identification, a savannah sparrow today - I've been reasonably sure of the call earlier. 22 May Eagle Creek, Alaska Awoke to find 2" of fresh snow on the ground. Decided to write this day off for productive field work. Pitched my tent next to the cabin to see how it stood up, then piled in the truck and drove to Fairbanks - arriving just after 8:00 a.m.. On the way in saw a number of new birds: pine grosbeak, spruce grouse, red-necked grebe, surf- scoters, horned grebes. In Fairbanks talked with Bob Weeden and John thebire - U.B.C. graduate student working on ptarmigan. Got some 20 ga. shotgun shells and called Max Brawer to have the Uber tape recorder and parabolic reflector sent down from Barrow. Some other errands and we were back on the road. About mile 30 saw a flock of 7 baird seropipers by the road feeding in a flooded gravel pit. About mile 32 found a surf bird along the road. The bird was very tame, allowing Jerry and Sandy to get a good look at the beast.

MacLean 1968 Journal (22 May) Not much else but some wild Alaskan drivers. Returned to Eagle Creek to find most of the area snow covered and more falling. A quick dinner, and so to bed. 23 May Eagle Creek, Alaska Awoke to clearing weather, but still below freezing and the ground snow covered. Set out with the Ptarmigan crew towards Mastodon Dome - first up the (steep and slippery) face of South Hill directly behind camp, then along the ridge. Virtually no bird activity. Once atop the hill the ptarmiganers realized that it would be nigh impossible to get an accurate count of white birds sitting quietly on a snowy background, and headed back towards main study area. I continued on along the ridges to look for surfbirds. Climbed up to the top of Mastodon Dome (4318 ft.). Very quiet - passerines were present, but not singing. Found a pair of snow buntings on the slope of Mastodon Dome. Turned back toward North, and finally saw my first surfbird at 0755 (started out at 4:00 A.M.). About this time the sun broke through and it began to warm up. Snow, which was very dry and powdery, began to disappear - more by sublimation than by melting. As the snow disappeared the passerine activity increased, and by mid-morning longspurs

Journal (23 May) display was quite intense, and horned larks, pipts, and a few wheatears were also displaying. Density of horned larks seems to have increased, and I occasionally see interspecific interactions between larks and longspurs. At 8:30 saw my first afternigon of the day - 2 ♂ rocks in a fierce territorial encounter on the SW face of Center Hill. Otherwise, I heard no display and the birds were in hiding. Saw pectorals twice today - a very rapid, twisting flight of 4 birds, and a ♂ in full hooting display on the SE side of Center Hill! Found the 2nd and 3rd (and final) surf birds of the day on the S. side of Center Hill at 10:16. Watched these for a while, then came in to eat and rest. In the afternoon I wanted to see if I could find pectorals along the road to collect. Jerry and I drove down to the lower camp to get the shotgun from Sandy. Could not finder, so we looked for birds, instead. Saw a pair (presumably) of yellow-shafted flickers and a pair of Sparrow-hawks - near the Northern end of the range of these. Next drove up to Eagle Summit. Saw no pectorals - only a few bairdi (there are more abundant and active today than before). Spent about 45 minutes on

Naches 1968 Journal (23 May) the summit practicing getting the truck unstuck from the side of the road, in case we should ever really get stuck. Neither saw nor heard surfbirds. Returned to camp. Found a pair of Say's phoebes hanging around the cabin. One bird (maybe both) continually entered the space under the peak at the South end of the cabin to sing—maybe we'll have a nest in our cabin. By this time much of the snow had disappeared. Passerines were still quite noisy; counted 5 full song sequences in 1 langspur display flight. Ate a big chicken dinner, took down my tent, and to bed. 24 May Eagle Creek, Alaska Woke to five 2" of fresh snow on the ground again, and snow still falling, darnit. Gave up on getting up early. Ate a leisurely breakfast, then drove down to the lower camp. The five of us (Jerry, Sandy, Dale and his Sandy, and myself) were birdwatching and tree spanow collecting down there. Saw a yellow warbler right by their camp. Drove down the road a bit, then got out to look for spanows. Collected 3, and in the process added orange- crowned warbler and a possible pine siskin to our list. Saw several species in small groups by the road—possibly related to

Maclure 1968 Journal (24 May) burn weather - 4 snipe, 6 mallards, several groups of water pipits. Not much singing- but are very loud and persistent for sparrow. Returned to camp and almost immediately saw snow buntings, orange-crowned warblers, and a Wilson's warbler - 3 new warblers in the area in the same day. Much of the snow was gone from the area around camp, so Jerry and I drove up to Eagle Summit to listen for surfbirds and assess conditions there. Saw golden plover, baird sandpiper, and a glock of ca. 25 longspurs, but no Alphiza. Returned and found Canvas Jay in the willows by camp - new to my list for the study area. The robin nest by the highway, above camp, now has 2 eggs. Sany has a red poll nest with 3 eggs as of yesterday. John the birge arrived in the area this afternoon, bringing 1 assistant, 3 dogs, and a note from Weeden. He did not bring one Uher tape recorder. 5 May Eagle Creek, Alaska awoke to find .... I'm getting tired of this. this one doesn't seem so bad; there is <1" on the ground, and although it is still (5:00 a.m.) snowing, the light intensity is high, clouds look thin, and some birds (one

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

My robin nest by the road may be deserted - still 3 eggs and they were cold. 26 May Eagle Creek, Alaska Left the cabin at 6:45 A.M.; returned at 7:00 P.M. In between covered a lot of ground. Weather was clear and warm. Went up the face of South Hill, then back along the ridges to the base of Mastodon Dome. the ptarmigan chasers started counting there to complete the census of the Mastodon area. I remained on the ridges and tried to keep pace with them. Worked toward the South, then toward the west. Added buff-breasted sandpiper to our list: saw 2 singletons and a group of 5. Also saw pectorals in addition to many bairds, display up actively. Encountered about 1 pair of surfbirds / ridge. Heard only one brief burst of display. Golden plovers both inflocks and as territorial pairs, with several males displaying. Encountered many ptarmigan and heard more display than on any previous day.

Since weather was good at Eagle Creek, and Since Dr. Weeden said that thebirge would be coming down the road Wednesday or early Thursday, I decided to go back and have a try at recording the surfbirds and collecting some. Spent most of the day in Fairbanks running errands, then driving back. Once back, found that Thebirge will not be leaving until Friday. that introduces complications. Saw many snowshoe hares along the road and one roso-kill porcupine. the Dukes seem to have dispersed - they are no longer seen in flocks in small lakes along the road. Watched for roassiot peeps - especially surfbirds - but saw only an unidentified pair. At Weeden's house in Fairbanks saw a ruffed grouse on his drumming log. 28 May Eagle Creek, Alaska woke to find a day nearly ideal for recording: warm, clear, and little wind. It

Macheten 1968 Journal (28 May) took a little while to set the recorder up and remind myself of its operation, then drove up to Eagle Summit ca. 8:30 A.M. Started searching Puzzlement Hill for birds, with no success. Started out the ridge running North and found myself in a freak storm - wind and hail, then rain. Had to scramble down to the road and back to the truck to keep the equipment from getting wet. Went back to the camp to eat, curse, and wait it out. The storm cleared and I went out again, but now the wind was too great. So I got skunked for recordings. Didn't matter - walked much of the rest of the day and never heard Surfbird Display. I would like to have recorded at least the alarm note to compare with Bairdii, tho. Went out with malice and shotgun and shot the first (and only) pair of surfbirds I encountered. Spent the rest of the afternoon and part of the evening walking and looking for these and other shorebirds. Saw many golden plovers and bairds, and a number of buff-breasts, but that was all. Returned for a late dinner, then worked until 2:00 A.M. putting up the pair of surfbirds. Today I saw, for the second time, the tail-pulling precopulatory behavior of larges pums. Also saw PP carrying nesting material.

MacLean 1968 Journal (28 May) Green growth of grasses and Dryas is evident and flowers (Ranunculus sp.; Douglasia; Arctostaphylos sp.) are becoming common. The latter flowers before any new vegetative growth is evident. Eagle Creek hit its high point of the year this evening; the snow is perhaps 75% gone from the area. Saw a new bird outside the cabin: grey- drecker thrush. They are insignificant-looking things and could easily have been overlooked previously. This one was singing right outside of the window. Found a new robin nest w/ 4 eggs under the eaves of the next to last cabin of the camp area. 29 May Eagle Creek to Fairbanks, Alaska I now sit by the side of the Steese Highway at the Eagle Creek roadhouse, waiting to try to bum a ride to Fairbanks. I left part of my gear in the cabin to be brought down and shipped to me in Barrow. Began at 8:50 A.M. I have not seen a car yet (9:40). [Forgot to mention: yesterday I watched a short-tailed weasel courting around a talus slope on Puzzlement Hill. It was nearly fearless — passed within 15 ft. of me. It was an interesting mixture of white and brown pellage.] First car came by at 11:00 A.M.— headed toward Fairbanks—and gave me a

Again noted that the waterfowl have dispersed and are not seen along the road, as before. Fairbanks has leafed out rapidly and is now quite green. Checked into Fairbanks Hotel, then went over to Wien office and discovered that they have no plans for a flight to Barrow. Went over to talk with Dr. Weedon and retrieve stowed belongings, then went to U.S.A. and spend the rest of the afternoon and evening talking with Dr. West regarding post-doc plans. 30 May Fairbanks, Alaska Spent the day killing time, wondering if I would ever get away. In the afternoon Wien decided to attempt a flight this evening. 31 May Fairbanks to Barrow, Alaska Spent the night in the Fairbanks airport. At 6:00 A.M. they loaded our bags on the plane; at 6:30 they cancelled the flight. Were immediately back to town to see Bob Fisher, and finally managed to be off for Barrow, via Cessna 185, at 9:30 A.M. landed on the road

Made a quick trip into the ARRL office, then went into Barrow and remained there until we moved our gear out to camp at 8:00 P.M. 1 June Barrow, Alaska Spent most of the day talking with Brewer and Schineller and getting the lab in order. Met Dave Norton from the U.S.A. - here to work on bioenergetics of incubation and chick growth in jaegers. In the afternoon drove out to the Beach Ridge with Dave and Eona for a first look at the tundra. The weather was fairly warm. Melt about normal or slightly ahead - about a 250 m. stretch of the ridge was exposed S.W. of the crossing. Saw many red-backs, 2 pectorals, 2 semi-pale, 1 turnstone, lots of longspurs and buntings. The tundra that is exposed shows little sign of lemming activity and is generally in good shape - many seed heads, etc.. Collected 3 alpina and 1 melanotos, then drove over to area of Pitelko's census plot. Conditions there were about the same - saw only redbacks and longspurs; not as much exposed tundra. Saw 1 short-eared owl here, as well as at previous site. A few jaegers flying by [illegible]

Walked home via Browerville ridge. Saw the first birds of the year as well as redbacks, turnstones, and the two passerines. Still no golden plovers. 3 June Barrow, Alaska Finally made connections with Pitelka, as well as Tom Custer, who arrives last night. In the morning talked about surf birds and finished arranging the lab. After lunch went out to drum area to set Tom's longspur traps, then continued out to survey the area. Went out to look at and scheme over the now-deserted micro-met- wanigans. (there it was so warm that we had to take off our jackets.) Out to gasoline ridge- not much there but 1 very worked up red-back. Again was impressed by the tundra condition; many cocoons, willow catkins about to burst out, and many Pedicularis hedos -

On the way stopped by Voth area in an area of wet, grassy tundra and took 2 ♂ pectorals that happened by. (they are heavier than previous birds: 100.0, 101.6g.) Watched red-back activity, then collected 3. Saw the first snowy owl of the year, but again no lemming sign. Also saw the first red phalaropes - a few individuals moving by. Early for these. Drove in by way of Tom's longspur traps. After dinner went out with Tom and Eona to check longspur traps. Found a previously banded ♂ longspur and a new ♀. Returned and spent the evening in our hut with Ditelka, Tom, and Dave Norton trying to help Dave realign his project, since jaegers are out for this summer. He responded well to our suggestions of red-backed shropiper or golden plover as subjects of the same kind of study he has planned for jaegers. Note: funny business in the lemmings; although there is little sign there was some spring breeding. We frequently scare up juvenile lemmings - caught one tonight.

Maclean 1968 Barrow Journal June Barrow, Alaska Went out to Drum Area to check longspur traps. Saw 2 pair of semi-pals; no bairdii yet. Edna went to work with the group of M.D.'s from (I think) Univ. of Washington - here to check the eyes of people in the village. this involves (of course) a conference with Dr. Brewer. In the afternoon drove out to the North end of P's plot. He worked South to census the plot; I worked No, then west along the ridge to sample habitat available for lesoing. Did this by setting a line toward some landmark and walking a transect, taking stations at 10 m. (pace) intervals, until I ran out of exposed tundra, then changing directions and repeating. Took about 175 stations this way. I think the data are good, although I should not limit myself to one area. There was a burst of alpina activity at P's plot, but lees on the other arm of the ridge. In the evening drove out the Gaswell road. Right near the gaswell buildings a portion of So. Footprint lake was exposed. There, a newly arrived flock of ca. 25-30 alpina, one melanostas

Weather was again comfortably warm without much wind. 5 June Barrow, Alaska Spent the morning in the lab. Checked stomachs of red-backs that Pitelka removed from his plot. 2 ♀♀ has lemming bones and tooth, little else. ♂ has fresh tipula larvae, no lemming material. Once again- if holds. Went out to Drum Area briefly. Decided to use lemming traplines as habitat-snow cover transects. Right after lunch started out and did: IVA-B, III A-B, I + II, IV + VI, VII + VIII, IX + X. This gave 6 x 102 points. I thought of making polygons by joining the ends of each pair of lines, but rejected this because of the inconsistent distances between lines. Managed to do them all in 1 afternoon- partially due to the fact that 5 lines (IVA-B, VIII, VII, and X) are completely snow covered. Found that 90.2% of the total was under snow, which matches my subjective evaluation. This left only 60 stations exposed-not really enough for a good habitat sample,

Ran out of landmark in driving across Central Marsh - funny feeling. Saw 2 sandhill cranes from a short distance in North Area. Saw and collected the first & pectoral of the season. After dinner went home and lay down... and couldn't get up. 6 June Barrow, Alaska Went out to Drum Area to check longspur traps. Banded 1 pt. Still 2 pairs of semi-pale there. Flock of ca. 35 pectorals. Marthi Soikkeli arrived last night. this morning I drove down to Skroawik with him and two native laborers to position the wanigan and check on the condition of Holmes' census plot. We ran the periphery of the plot; one or two Drums are missing, but the limits of the plot are clear. It is about 95% Snow covered, but there was much red- back activity on the open places. Also saw a few pectorals on the plot. Positioned the wanigan on a patch of open high ground about 1/2

Journal June way down the East side of the plot, with the door facing west. Returned via the gaswell and found, again, much activity there- red-backs, pectorals, phalaropes, some semi-pals. Collected a ♂ and ♀ pectoral and a redback there. Back to camp for a late lunch as weather turned colder and snow began to fly. Spent the rest of the afternoon putting netting on new emergence traps. In the evening Pitelka, Soikkeli, and I drove out to Beach Ridge in the vicinity of Micro-Met. It was quite cold and activity was very low. This left time for conversation. Soikkeli came right out with it: "There are many things that I want to see with my own eyes." Already we have convinced him of one difference- showed him a first year ♀ coming into breeding condition. First year birds do not even come to the breeding area in the population he has studied in Finland. It was too cold to get much done, so we came in and I worked until 11:30 finishing the emergence traps.

Spent the morning with Soikkeli talking and assembling a box of gear for Ikravik. After lunch and a quick weedel repair set out. Weather was cool - near freezing. Drove directly there, with Soikkeli learning to drive. Put away the gear, then took a more leisurely trip back. 1 pair of red-backs right around the wanigan look about ready to lay eggs. Not much else on the plot. Many red-backs on open grounds on the way back. By the gaswell - still many pectardals (collected ♂ + ♀ to show Soikkeli size dimorphism) and red-backs, frequent phalaropes, some turnstones. Still jaegers passing by, and we saw an owl on the gasoline arch. Back in camp for a 2-hour marathon discussion with the Director, interrupted by phone calls. Spent the evening doing the habitat transects. As suspected - not much melt in the last few days - 88% snow cover. Found a 1-egg alpine nest just No. of traplines IVA-B.

He is having trouble directing his efforts - don't know how it will work out. 3 June Barrow, Alaska We were awaken by A.R.L. people wanting us to move to hut 169 - our home for the remainder of the summer. That took all of the morning and part of the afternoon. By then, as a result of short sleep and an injected finger, I felt lousy. Remained that way for the rest of the day. It was sunny, but cool today. Again not too much melt, although it seemed to be warming up again by about midnight. 9 June Barrow, Alaska Slept in, and felt better for it. Went out with Pitelka to do habitat transects. Stopped by lagoon at junction of gasoline and main roads, where sandpipers were feeding. Left Pitelka and did III A-B, IV A-B, I+II, then picked him up on the way back to camp. Went out the other way and did I+II, III+VIII, IV+VI.

Maclean 1968 Journal 9 June) I'm now convinced that there is an abnormally large amount of snow out there - still 86% snow covered. We can still go just about anywhere by weasel by driving on snow. Yet I saw the first blossoming Ranunculus today in two different places. Apparently the ridges, which blew off early, have had plenty of sunlight and adequate warmth, but there has not been enough of the latter to melt the snow accumulation in the lower places. Back briefly to figure snow cover, then out to lagoon by junction of Queswell Road to photograph a ♂ common eider stranded there. Dinner at the mess-hall, then out with Tom and Eona. Stopped by the lagoon again so that Tom could photograph the eider. Saw a knot there - probably ♀. Continued on to check my red-back nest and take 500 cores for Bertie's extraction. Took 8 from SW and set. Flat ca. 150 m. No. of lines IV A-B, where I saw ♂ redback from the above nest feeding. Drove up to Village Ridge - too much snow, so back to Voith area and took 8 cores from low polygon through system under new cake-eater site.

Spent the rest of the morning talking with Saikkeli and getting him squared away for another, longer, trip to Ikravik, and catching up on field notes. After lunch Pitelka and I went in to buy some ivory carvings from Paul Patkotak. Returned and went out to check my red-back nest - now 3 eggs and incubating. Went up to Village Ridge to try to find another nest and discovered a 2 egg nest about 300m. W.W. of the first. Returned for dinner. Met John Cooy - U.S.A. student here to collect Lemmus for a physiological study to be done in Fairbanks. Seems to be an organized fellow - should do all right. Went out to Elson Bluffs, S.o. of Wohlslag. Found another 2-egg red-back nest. Most of the red-backs appears to be at the laying stage. A group of 5 or 6 plovers - took 1. Later a lone, possibly territorial, plover, collected this, too. Phalaropes beginning to disperse over the tundra. After that drove over to Dave Norton's study plot. He has

Earlier the ♀ acted (toward Dave) as if nest was nearby. Looks good. Drove in - weighed and measured pectards, counted larvae under extractors (lots of Pedicia), have to write notes, and so to bed. Today was quite warm - goo melting weather. In the afternoon I went out without a jacket (It really wasn't that warm, but it is fun to think it is.). The Ranunculus really burst forth - they are all over the place. This will be a great flower year. 1 June Barrow, Alaska I feel busy! Slept in, then piddled away the morning getting infected finger repaired, counting Tipulios under extractors, and even sweeping the dab. Spent the afternoon doing melt and habitat transects - still 82% snow cover, but an increase in the rate of melt. It is still possible to drive anywhere in a vessel, and the snowpack is not yet to the point where it could go in one goo warm day. Not much time to watch birds. There has definitely been an influx of bairds. In the evening I tried to go to the movie, but I couldn't take it and went home to bed.

Went with Tom to the two near Village Ridge - Cake-eater area. Collected 4 eggs and an incubating F from each. Saw a curlew scapiper F by Cake-eater on the way in. Back to the lbb to exchange Tom for Pitelka. Drove out to Micromet area (now extinct), dropped FAP, and continued to Wohlslag Slough to collect 4 more eggs and an incubating F. (See C. alpine notes - thindate). In the evening drove out with Tom across Wohlslag to collect material for Berlee extraction, took 8 cores from saturated flat on So. bank of Wohlslag, in an area but recently exposed. Went on to Elson bluffs and took 8 more from a flooded polygon trough system. Walked around this area - saw pectoals trying to set up territories, with some hostip. Found a 3-egg Phalacrope nest - far ahead of other areas. Returned to place this material in the funnel, then home to write notes and to bed. It was again quite warm. This has been the warmest spring of my experience, which makes the extensive snow cover surprising. Must have been a very heavy snow pack this

Spent the afternoon doing transects. The snow is perched at the bank - very slushy, but still there (76% cover). The next two days, if the weather holds, should see the end of much of it. Nothing new in the birds - bairdi still coming in, and melenotos looking encouraging. The Wien plane brought Pete Gogan, our assistant, and Uriel Safriel, the Israeli Post-Doc from Michigan - another shorebird type. Put Pete to work hand-sorting the berlese 300 samples to see how the extractors worked - not perfectly - we found ? Pedicia in 12 samples. Safriel mentioned that he had been successful in placing samples in hot water. Will have to try this. 14 June Barrow, Alaska Pete found 1 additional Pedicia in the remaining 4 300 samples. .. the berlese extracted 38/46, or 82.5% of the Pedicia in the 3-day run. took Gogan and Safriel out the gasoline rods.

In <1 hr. found 2 alpina nests ca. 150 m. apart and 2 pusillio, nests ca. 60 m. apart. One of these was near the snow and obviously fresh, so after walking around the area we went back to get a trap. Returned with Soikkeli and his trap - took the incubating bird-a 4, me thinks - and the 4 eggs. Back to the lab to weigh eggs and bird. Spent the evening in Barrow at the Nalakotuk. During the evening it rained quite a bit. This should loosen up the remaining snow. 15 June Barrow, Alaska Today was the day when the snow turned to water and slush. Pete and I got waders from the camping room, then spent half of the afternoon putting tube patches over the holes in them. Went out to do habitat transects. Ran into problems in deciding how to classify flooded troughs and lawlands - they are temporarily ponds, but the actual topographic characteristics, considered without regard to moisture, are still 'trough' or 'flat'. The correct thing to do is call these tr-pw or f-pw - defining pond water as water that covers the bases

To allow for these I must treat PE as a special category, modifying topography, and recope PE situations to compare frequency of occurrence with utilization of such. I think this can be done without much loss of information from previous transects. By the time I had this issue resolved and had made 2 trips up all of lines III & IV the afternoon was shot. After dinner Pete and I went out again to III & IV, then I & II. Sloshed across the S. end of Central Marsh - this was almost a mistake. Stopped to take 500 samples and shoot 5 pectorals, then on to complete the transects. Finally finished the job at 1:30 A.M. Back to the lab to put the new 500 samples in the extractor, then fell into bed. the phalaropes and pectorals appear ready to take advantage of the appearance of suitable nesting habitat.

Started transects at 12:30 - did III + IV (A & B). Again heard tenors by IIIA-B. Back to the lab, then out to II + I, I+II, IV+VI, then VIII + VIII. Discovered that I have to do VII + VIII as a greater distance from the lines, since years of walking the traplines have worn a trough, so that the immediate vicinity of the line is wetter than the surrounding marsh. Again - much melt in the past 2 days; we're down to 30.9% snow cover. Much of the rest should go before the next series of transects. Finished the job at 6:30 P.M.

Again, it was 100%. After finishing this Pete and I went out to the area in lamo from the navy communications van. Semi-pale there in active display, as if newly arrived. Saw no bairdii and found no puzillie nests - just 1 four-egg Arenaria nest. Went in about '14 mile and took 800 samples - 8 from a sat. flat and 8 from a low polygon trough system. These were from areas just exposed by melt, so that all 4 series of samples taken to date represent a melt- off sample. Spend the evening hand-sorting the samples just removed from the funnels.

Most of the lines are clear now, but no line is completely so. The job takes longer each time - III A-B, IV A+B, back through the lab, then IV+V, I+II before dinner. Gasline Ridge is located with blooming Pedicularis, Salix rotundifolia catkins, Ranunculus, Saxifraga cernua about to bloom. Went out after dinner to finish the job: V+VI, VII+VIII. Still lots of baird activity. It is obvious now that the pterodacts will be another bust. The final evidence: the unbalanced sex ratio - many more ♂♂ than ♀♀ now. this will be a low phalarope year, too, but not as much non-breeding in this sp. No sign of the knots. 20 June Barrow, Alaska Today was Dr. Pitelka's Departure day and the day of initiation of tanglefoot insect traps. Petz and I greased up the boaras and hedero our.

It was clear and cold. 21 June Barrow, Alaska Cleaned the lab, then spent most of the morning hand-sorting the upland 800 samples. They produced a total of 1 tipula! Guess we'll go out of the tipula business. Rigged the doors on some new-design emergence traps and repaired 3 old ones, then loaded up 6 of these and our to tanglefoots site II (So. Beach Rioje). Placed 2 emergence traps in Central Marsh - #5-fsw-%A,% and #6-f-s-%A-%Co. These correspond to tanglefoots II-5 and II-6. Also took 4 800 cores corresponding to each of these. Placed the other 4 emergence traps on the ridge - one in a t-r-sw-3lo situation, one t-r-w-%o, the other 2 at nearly any sites. Had a little trouble making them escape-proof.

Slept in in the morning, then came in to harvest Peotis (very few thus jar). Went our with Pete to do transects - took all afternoon to finish III A-B and III A-B. Pectorals were all around in flocks, and we found 2 nests in the Voth Area in addition. Also collected a Conasa Jay in the Voth Area. Adult insects appeared in response to the warm weather. Found a ♀ Prionocera flying quite well by III A-0.0. Apparently they use the wings to disperse before becoming more sedentary. Prionocera, being common in a patchy (pono margin) habitat, probably needs to fly more. I don't recall seeing tipula fly as well. Also fair numbers of ao. Chironomias. Returned for dinner.

Finished the job and returned after midnight. 3 June Barrow, Alaska Spent the morning at home, thinking Tom and Pete were our setting traplines. They weren't - Tom decided that he had more important things to do. Had to spend the afternoon with Pete setting III & II, then I & II. These are the only lines there are in any condition to be run. Still lots of pectoralis around - collected 3, and the evening run of the traps got 2 more, (including a ♀). Another beautiful, warm day. Still at least 25 white-rumps on gasoline ridge. The Pedicularis display there is magnificent. Saw a group of 23 snowgeese overhead as we did lines IV & V. In the evening Holmes, Soikkeli, and Safriel came up to the burr for a shorebird confab. Unfortunately Soikkeli seems afraid of this English, and Safriel definitely doesn't, so we didn't hear much from Soikkeli.

Out with Pete to see if the improved weather has brought tipulio emergence at site I. Nothip in the emergence traps or on the boarnos, but 9 can traps yielded 6♂ & 1 ♀ Tipula. So looks like these may be the most sensitive. Activated the remainder, then went in. there are two 3-egg baird nests in the drum area very close to camp. Checked these several times, but they remained at 3 eggs. More Damnit. In the evening places the 500 samples in the extractors, then went to shooting station to pick up my new parka. One more check of the 2 baird nests, and then to bed. Am I taking on more than is physically

Moelea 1968 Journal possible? I feel like I'm near the limit. July Barrow, Alaska A very winy day. Down to the lab to harvest berlese yields - lots of big Prionocera. Why are Prionocera larvae much larger than tipula when the adults are no longer? Only possibility that comes to mind - maybe these giants are ♀♀ and ♀ Prionocera emerge gravid while ♀ tipula must zero to form eggs. I don't think that is the answer, tho. Maybe I should try to let these pupate. Processes yesterday's bird slaughter, then our to check pitfall cans (1 cerabid, 1♀ tipula) and baird nests (still 3 eggs each; met thinks they are done.). Home to work on G.D. field notes. Went in to Barrow one spent the evening playing softball at the 4th of July festivities (camp lost, 4-3). It was damn cold and winy! 5 July Barrow, Alaska Awoke to thick fog and a wind at the same time. The fog eventually lifted, but not the wind. Today was tangledoor change day. As usual, haven't read the last ones yet - that took most of the morning. Very little so far - virtually nothing from Site I. The insects are certainly late. The Central

It is still cold and windy - nothing in the emergence traps, and no tipulios on the site I tanglepots. the beer cans are the most sensitive - they are producing flies when the other two methods fail. Dr. Mary Erickson of U.C.S.B. arrived on the evening Wien plane. After dinner, she, Eone, and I drove up to shooting station to visit with the Algeaks for the evening. 6 July Barrow, Alaska A beautiful, warm, nearly calm morning - one of the few a year that bring out mosquitoes.

An influx of jaegers - parasitic and long-tailed, but still not many large tipulios for them to feed on. Plover and turnstone near line III B still incubating. A flock of steller's eiders plus one handsome spectacled eider?. Alpine nest found on the 3rd is still 3 eggs. In the afternoon the wind shifted to the East and became much colder.

Duplicated the 8 from under the new cake-ester site only approximately, because of disturbance there. Found a new 4-egg pusillus near in the Voth Area. Returned to camp, then out to check the site I emergence traps (nothip) and empty the beer cans. Back to spend nearly two hours in a prolonged 'chat' with MCB. In the evening took MNE and Pete into Barrow to act like tourists. 7 July Barrow, Alaska Transsect day. Weather as yesterday: warm in the morning, winds shifting to the East and becoming colder in the afternoon. Did lines I & II, IV A-B before lunch. Again saw and heard several white-rumps over Gasline Ridge. After lunch out with Edna and MNE for more transects. Did VII & VIII, then II & VI, and then checked emergence traps and can traps at site II. Back to site I to check devices there; our first emergence result here - a 37 Peciq from I-10.

Eona began work in the ARL office, so I began coming to work at 8:00 A.M. Spent the morning counting and preparing tanglefoots. Still only a total of 48↑ tipula at site I. Unfortunately Pete got a bit oversalaw and cleaned board II-6 before I had counted it. Our early to make the change. Still lots of plowers and many pectorals in Central Marsh, the latter in a tight flock. Collected 6 with 2 shots. Nothing in the emergence traps. Spent the evening of our first wedding anniversary at home with Eona. 9 July Barrow, Alaska More wind. Spent the morning counting tanglefoots and sorting 500 samples. The samples now in the funnel are a complete ways mystery! The smaller larvae have disappeared entirely; the larger class is reduced, but recognizable. What could be selectively taking the smaller larvae?

MacLea 1968 Journal (9 July) But most disturbing - if there really is a two-year development, these missing larvae are now here to generate the large larvae of next year. Our early in the afternoon in quest of 500 samples South of Wohlseag. We were lucky enough to duplicate all 16 locations sampled on 12 June without too much searching. On the way back checked the can traps and emergence traps. I-10 produced 587 and 34 Pedicia. It looks like synchronous emergence, which makes the negative results to date less disturbing. The can traps were loaded. The flies may be attracted to these as a refuge from the wind. We frequently find them standing on the sides near the top, as if they could easily walk out if they wished. A few nice days without wind would settle this. In the evening Pete and I have collected 1/2 of the 500 samples just removed from the funnel. Found nearly nothing. The small larvae just aren't there! 10 July Barrow, Alaska Hypothesis: if the small larvae are still present, the only way they are likely to have gone is down. Went out to

Returned to the lab and spent the rest of the morning hand-sorting these from the bottom up. Found a total of 1 Pedicia (13 mm); hypothesis discarded, mystery remains. The 1 larva was near the surface and would have been included in our normal 500 sample. The 16 samples in the funnel now appear to be on there way to duplicating the results of the previous samples. In the afternoon something caught up with me. Fell asleep on a table in the lab, then went home to sleep all afternoon while Pete checked the emergence traps. Came in to count more tanglefoots in the evening, then home for more sleep. 11 July Barrow, Alaska The wind has finally gone down a bit - down to moderate, but fairly warm. In early to count the one remaining board, clean and prepare all of them, then spent the remainder of the morning catching up on my damn field notes.

Many insects - mostly Pedicia - on the ground; the wind has dried the tundra quite a bit; there's very little standing water now and the dark edges of ponds are now exposed (but not yet heavily used as feeding areas). In checking the emergence traps we found 6 Pedicia in the trap (I-10: East of trapline X) that yielded 8 Pedicia two days ago. No other trap has produced anything near this number of animals. In the evening began counting the tanglefoots and had a beer with Soikkeli, who is leaving us tomorrow, then moved up to Shotop Station for the remainder of the evening. 12 July Barrow, Alaska Spent the morning counting most of the remaining tanglefoots. The catch is still going up. Also spoke with Soikkeli and gave him some spiders to take back to associates in Finland. Went out for 500 samples in the afternoon. Instead of trying to duplicate a previous sample which would be hard to find we took all 16 from Holmes' Morass; 8 from the flat 100 m. East of and in line with trapline II, and 8 from a dip through

One batch of 8 did poorly in the extractors. Lots of tiny (5-8 mm) Pediqa from the Elcor bluff through system samples - an area that opened quite early. That makes it appear that these are from this year's eggs. Anyway I twist it, it is hard to make these samples agree with the June samples from the same spots. 13 July Barrow, Alaska Transector day. It was pleasant early, but turned cold and foggy as I was doing the first line. Did I & II first; saw a female pectoral that surely had young or a nest nearby. Also did III A-B before lunch. Pete came along in the afternoon to check the insect traps while I did VIII + VII, IV & VI, then IX & X. That left only IIIA-B for the evening. It was pleasant once again by that time. The lines have dried dramatically since the last check. Many points rated 'dry' today. The III-B plover is still incubating; the turnstone nest was empty, presumed hatched. Saw a female pectoral with 4 jays perhaps a week old by AACS.

In the evening went to the camp movie with Bobby and Beverly, then drove out and spent the rest of the evening at Birrich. Another day of warm, dry wind. 15 July Barrow, Alaska Calm and very warm today. Pete began the 2nd run of the traps. I drove out with him early in the morning to lines IX & X. Insects were all over the place - especially Prionocera. Went back to camp and came back with the vacuum machine. Used this to take a sample, then spent the rest of the morning hand-picking a sample of Prionocera and sweeping for other Diptera. Found a new species of Tipulidae - a bit larger than Pedicia, black with thin yellow bands on the abdomen and a conspicuous yellow spot on the prothorax, in front of the wings. I first noticed it because it was flying more adeptly than any of the other tipulids. Collected 47♂ 86♀ and 44♀♀ Prionocera - an even ratio taken by a human predator when both sexes are winged.

After dinner went out to take 500 samples inland from Navy communications station, duplicating 18 June. Found all 8 from the flat, but only duplicated the trough sample approximately. Went out to spend the rest of the evening at shooting station. 16 July Barrow, Alaska More very warm weather, and calm today. Brought our mosquitoes in record numbers. Wessel problems delayed our start; at 10:00 Pete, tom, & I were off for Skroawik. Paused to check traplines I & II on the way. Lunch at the Skroawik wanigan, then faced the mosquitoes to survey the area. It was quickly apparent that there was no major breeding of pectorals here. Found a flock of ca. 80, from which I removed 367? and 39?. Even the 99 are molting now. Searched the area, but found no 99 with young. At 2:30 looked toward the west horizon and saw a group of at least 20 caribou. Thus began a wild evening.

Had to count all 12 tanglefoot boards; I discovered that 10 as a stretch is my psychological limit. Finished in time to help our and change, thus creating another dam set to count. Also collected a big pile of tipulids from the can traps, and Pete made a record haul from the site I emergence traps. The mean catch at site I is twice that of site II - largely as a result of trap I-10. Spent the whole evening counting the haul from the site II can traps. Can I survive this period of adult insects? 18 July Barrow, Alaska Hot, calm, and lots of mosquitoes again. The entire morning counting site I can traps.

Collected the 4th arm separately and will make a proportional correction of these spaced over the past 4 Days. In to put new soo samples in the jungle, then our to Birnirk for caribou dinner.

Still too warm for a jacket in the evening. 20 July Barrow, Alaska the warmest day yet - and I had all 12 of the peak set of tanglefoots to count. Counted one set and sent Pete out to change site II and harvest the insect traps at both sites. Cleaned and counted the other set and went our right after dinner with Eona to change these. Returned to spend the rest of the evening sorting 500 samples and counting can-trap yields. Funny: although the warm weather remains the insect catch has gone way down. So is as if the first few warm days forced all of the rest of this year's crop to emerge, so that there are none left. 21 July Barrow, Alaska and still warm. Spent the morning sorting more 500-samples and starting the counting of the new set of tanglefoots (also loaded) so I won't get stuck again. In the afternoon went out to harvest insect traps (catch way down) and get new 500 samples. These came (8) from the flat 100 of Gasline Ridge, duplicating 24 June sample approximately, and (8) from near emergence traps I-9810, duplicating 24 June sample exactly.

In the afternoon, in a very strong wind, went out to area near FAA for new 200 samples. Duplicated the 27 June sample 1576. Next went out to check the site I insect traps. The can traps are still not quite at zero - 1 each of T. tipula, 6 Pedicia. In the evening began hand-sorting 200 samples as Pete went out to check his traps. The lines produced 2 juv. phalaropes today - more evidence of fair breeding in this species. 25 July Barrow, Alaska Still quite windy. I planned to try using the tape recorder or transects today to avoid fooling with paper in the wind. We were delayed by a malfunction (loose battery connection) in the machine, then went out to begin at IV and quickly discovered that the wind obscured my voice in the machine. So I used paper.

Drove into Barrow to measure Algecks' floor to see how much floor tile is required. Wrote a letter to FAP, then counted the last tanglefoots. After preparing them again Pete and I went out to make the change. Found that someone had moved emergence trap II-3. The tipulids showed no noticeable response to the warm weather, which introduces the interesting question of how and when the "decision" to emerge as adults after 2 seasons or wait another season is made. How do they avoid responding to warm weather after the normal period of emergence?

Saw a number of snowy owls as well as the usual gulls and jaegers as we landed. It was quite warm there, with insect repellent a requisite. Opened up the camp, ate a quick lunch, a short rest, then went our wandering similarly. About the only conspicuous land bird was the black-bellied plover - a pair in a full distraction sequence. Lots of Ground Squirrels out. Very few glimpses of sandpiper types - no dowitchers at all. The tundra here is very, very dry; they have had no rain either.

MacLean 1969 Journal 3 June Seattle to Fairbanks to Barrow, Alaska Arrived in Fairbanks ca. 0945. Went out to the J.A.B. with Pitelka, then returned to airport and left for Barrow at 1715. In flying over Barrow, noted that nearly all of the ground that has been exposed was covered with fresh snow. When we landed it was 21° F. and snowing. Saw no Jaegers or owls in our approach. Spent the evening in Barrow. 4 June Barrow, Alaska Below freezing all day, with frequent snow fall. Spent the day dealing with personal matters and moving into the lab. Dave Norton reports that there were quite a few alpine in the area on the 1st, but that nearly all of these have gone. He described a rujous-necked sandpiper that he has seen. 5 June Barrow, Alaska Weather the same, showing no sign of changing. Checked our some field clothing and B.S.'d. The weather suddenly cleared around dinner time, and in the evening Dave Norton and I made a circuit of the area. Britton's area was

Maclaurin 1969 Journal (5 June) about 25% exposed, and there we saw ca. 4 sanderlings, 2 alpine, and a flock of 15 ± turnstones. No display activity. Proceeded on to Voth-Cakeseater area, then down the full length of Gasline Ridge. Area is 99+ % snow covered. Only biros - occasional longspur on small exposed spots. Exposed areas showed no sign of lemming utilization, and no jaegers or owls seen. I think it is time to back off of predictions of a high. In all - the tundra is late- May in appearance; a markedly late year thus far. Returned to write notes and more B.S. The snow is compact but not thick. Some of it is obviously the result of recent snowfall. If the good weather holds much tundra could emerge tomorrow. 6 June Barrow, Alaska A woke to clear weather, but as we ate breakfast a thick fog settled in, and the temperature remained below freezing. Later the fog rose to a high overcast, but the temperature never rose above freezing. Some snow loss via sublimation, but no melt. Tried to pass time in the morning.

Dave, Larry Hoar (Safriel's assistant), and I made a tour of the area - via Beach Ridge to Elsan Bluffs. Even there, very little exposed ground and only buntings, longspurs, and turnstones. Went back to Britton's Area and there found a flock of ca. 20 alpina as well as ca. 30 turnstones, 2 alba, 2 Pluvialis. Collected 3 alpina ± at random, and 2 of these Rao banos placed by Soikkeli last year! (See species account.) No owls, no jaegers, and little sign of lemmings. Not much point in going out in the evening, and so it was devoted to beer and conversation. 7 June Barrow, Alaska Another day as before - temperature never rose above freezing. Killed time for most of the Day. After dinner Dave, Bjorn Christiansen (Dave's assistant), Uriel, and I took a weasel south of

Maelee 1969 Journal (7 June) the village to check the bluffs. Saw 2 quilla in ponds in the village, and the others saw a strange thrush-like bird. Below the village the wind was blowing, snow was flying, and a fog created near-whiteout conditions. No birds. 8 June Barrow, Alaska More cold weather; no significant melt. Walked into town - saw turnstones and 2 alpine feeding along the edge of the ocean. Walked back, and didn't see anything (walking into the wind). Bar up until the early hours of the morning exchanging B.S.. Dave Hawes arrived from Berkeley today. Tundra conditions are late-May; there is virtually no exposed ground. It is remarkable that both re. longspurs in the drum area and alpine on Boikkel's area - the only areas that are at all exposed - the birds that are there are those that belong there - i.e., were banded last year. This suggests that the birds from adjacent areas are somewhere nearby, waiting for their areas to open up.

MacLean 1969 Journal 9 June Barrow, Alaska Awoke to find that the weather has broken. South wind, warm, sky clearing, and snow melting. And it's keep getting warmer. Went out with Hawes right after lunch. Joined Dave and Bjorn on Britton's Area. There saw sanderlings feeding quietly; alpina, bairdii, and pusilla all displaying; Melanotos - both sexes - present; red phalaropes flying about; saw several westerns and Norton saw a fuscicollis; both golden and black- bellied plovers; still lots of turnstones. And that is just the waders. Also saw long-tailed and pomarine jegers, short-eared out, old squaws, pintails, a white-fronted goose, lots of savannah sparrows, a redpoll .... in other words, things broke loose. Every bit of exposed ground had alpina and pusilla - usually displaying. The amount of exposed ground increased noticeably during the afternoon, but is still limited. A good stretch along the west side of the gas well road, where the melt is accelerated by dust blowing from the road, a little

Spend the evening getting it all down in the notes and processing the day's impressive haul of specimens. 10 June Barrow, Alaska Weather very warm again. Went our with F.A.P. and Hausee in the A.M.. Stopped at Britton's Area. Fewer birds than yesterday, the flocks having dispersed, but lots of activity. Frequent aerial displays of alpina, bairdii, pusilla. Sanderlings still there. Both red and last (least 1) Northern Phalaropes. Redpolls again very numerous - probably more so than longspurs. Moved up the road to Beach Ridge, so. of F.A.A.. there we saw first alpina nest-cup display of the year. Pectorals came by in a flock of ca. 6; I collected 277 and 187. Also collected a mauri for Norton. At this site saw both flocks and apparently territorial pairs of alpina and pusilla. We made predictions, backed by 6-packs of beer, of when the first sandpiper eggs would be dropped: Bjorn - Wednesday (tomorrow); Dave and

MacLean 1969 Journal (10 June) 1 - thursday; FAP - Friday. After lunch went out to drum area to help Custer place some longspur traps. Saw little exposed ground there, but pusilla and bairdii were quite active - displaying and frequent chasing - over where was open. Drove our to Gasline Ridge and back to beach ridge. In both places not much exposed ground. Both had dispersed pairs of alpine and bairdii. the tundra still looks like the 1st of June, although the snow has become very soft and wet. Could still drive right across North and South Meadow lakes. In the evening put up a ♀ Wilson Warbler that I collected in the drum area this a.f.r., then took a shower and wrote field notes. In Britton's area and south- ward the melt is getting down to low-polygon troughs and other low- lying sites, and more lemming sign is being revealed. Right now it looks like a good pre-high. 11 June Barrow, Alaska Warm weather again. Went out with FAP, Hawes, and Bill Berry in

Maclan 1969 Journal (11 June) the morning. Dropped Bill off to sketch shorebirds in Britton's Area. Four Buff-Breasts flew in and performed for us. alpina, bairdii, and pusilla were more dispersed and displaying actively. Was again impressed by bairdii and pusilla displaying over areas only slightly exposed, as if to establish territorial claim, and then landing to feed elsewhere. Walked up to Cake-eater and back. There is quite a bit of continuous exposed ground now. Still small flocks of alpina, while others look as if about ready to lay eggs. Both bairdii and pusilla are abundant. Saw at least 5 white-rumps, and several small flocks of pectorals. 2 pomarine jaegers - 1 of these melanistic. In the afternoon a very heavy but warm fog settled in. Took Bill and Hanes to Britton's Area, then went out to low bluffs just north of Footprint Lake with Tom Caoz and his son. The snow cover there is extensive, although the snow is very slushy. Struggled through it to collect 7 longspurs for Tom to do pesticide analysis. Returned to low, wet area south of FAA to collect red phalaropes for the same purpose (took 6) and

Returned to pick up Berg and Hawes, haul our a ski-do that was buried in slush, and back to camp. Went in to town in the evening. 12 June Barrow, Alaska Another warm, comfortable day. Spent the morning writing several letters and field notes. After lunch went out to Britton's Area. Watched a full nest-cup-population sequence with Bill Berry. (↑ in bairdii). Shorebirds have pretty well sorted our territories, so that aerial display activity is down. They have reached the nest-cup stage; there are sham cups all over Britton's Area. Began censusing Lemmus winter nests: 1 of 4 predated. That has a pregnant ♀, only partially consumed. Went to the movie in the evening, then sat down to plan seasons activities in insect studies. The thaw is still not deep enough to begin bird's sampling for Pedicia larvae. I plan to supplement the larvae sampling, tanglefoots, and emergence traps with some laboratory

Predation was high - ca. 1/3 of nests. (later Dick Andreas and his assistant reported capturing to Mustella rixosa by hand near the new cake-ester.) Hawes assisted in this. Tom Custer caught a live sub-adult Dicrostonyx under some junk in Britton's area. In the afternoon went out across Family Lagoon creek (North crossing) to look at newly exposed area there. A number of bairdii singing continuously. The only shorebirds actually occupying the area were a few melanotos. Collected an actively displaying ♂, and he topped 100 g! Caught a live of hemmus for Hawes which also topped 100 g.. Heard a displaying Dowither very nearby, but couldn't actually see it. Pitelka and Custer took the vehicle in the evening, so I stayed in to catch up on field notes. 14 June Barrow, Alaska the first Ranunculus of the year -

Spent the morning checking lemming nests for predation. Again - predation was quite high, including 1 Longspur hauled into a lemming nest and consumed. A pair of turnstones is nesting up on top of the ridge - they attacked a passing parasitic jaeger - but I did not find the nest. After lunch drove our Gawell Road. Left off Bill across Voth Crossing, then Dave Hawes and I looked at lemming nests in Voth area and across Voth Crossing, East of Road and North of Hewellyn's Road. In both places, the heavy predation level holds. Saw a few cases of pectoral display, but not much. Bairds again very noisy, including one chase of 5 birds. Saw a few more jaegers today, but still not many, and no territorialism. It is going to be very interesting to see if the lemmings can rise to a peak after suffering this kind of predation - apparently just as the increase was getting going in high gear. there is

Maclean 1969 Journal (14 June) a great deal of sign, but the tundra is not decimated as after a high - hence, the nutrient-recovery cycle has not been 'completed'. If the lemmings fail to rise, the n-r hypothesis is in trouble. Spent the evening - another very warm one, with a hard rain shower - in Barrow. Forgot to mention - on the way in from NEST - checking this afternoon Dave and I took the first 500-sample of the season - 8 from a polygon trough system on the Beach Ridge, 30. of FAA, and 8 from the Flat 150 m. WNW., the soil thaw is progressing rapidly. Barrow, Alaska 15 June Very warm again. Checked under the berleses and found a good catch. One core has all 3 species of Tipulidae. Next caught up on field notes. Spent the afternoon in town, and, since the water in Village Lagoon went over the Dam and washed out the road, the evening as well. Heard Bairdii displaying rights over Barrow. Barrow, Alaska 16 June Rode back to camp in the man-haul in the morning, and continues my

Maclean 1969 Journal (16 June) interrupted night's sleep. Made it up a second time to discuss insect plane with Pitelka, then out to collect birds. Went our Gaswell Road and walked over to Southwest extension of Gasline Ridge. Again, bairdii was the most active display. Collected 1 of these. Saw a number of 87 melanotas and no 44. Very little display. Collected 5887. A number of apparently unmated alpina in the area, as well as territorial birds. Collected 4. Saw several mauri displaying. Phalaropes were very abundant. And... a territorial Pomarine Jaeger. Drove in to weigh and catalog the carnage before dinner. In the evening a thick, cold fog came in so I stayed in to wash clothes and write notes. Found one lemming nest today with the remains of 12 crania - high for the year. 17 June Barrow, Alaska Our early with F.A.P., Dave, Bill, to see our Traplines I & II. It was foggy, with a cold NW wind. Lemming sign on Gasline Ridge is like other places - limited to the low-lying sites. Spent most of

Maclean 1969 Journal 17 June the morning lookup for lemming nests between the traplines. Not too many, and the same level of predation as other places. 12 of 13 predation nests had but 1 Lemmus in it; the other had 2. Saw mauri displaying on South side of the ridge, and FAP saw a fuscicollis in the spot which they seem to occupy each year. Pectoralis are there, but saw only 1st and very little display. Found a 1-egg reeppoll nest in an old longspur nest, relined with Salix arctica 'cotton', right on top of a raised polygon on the ridge. Beautiful, blue egg. In the afternoon the wind has shifted to the East and increased, and it was cold. Went out into the Drum area to try to find nests. Pusilla are uncommon there- saw only 3 pairs. Bairdii are more common - still displaying and chasing very actively. Found one spot where a bairdii kept sitting in an empty cup. Localized a bairdii and a pusilla nest, but found none. In the evening were out with FAP and Dave; as they checked traplines I & II I took the second set of 500 samples - 8 from a shallow low

As he checked lines I & II I walked over to Village Ridge with Don kangas to try to find the ponds that Jaap kalfj used in his Ph.D. Study. Can't be sure, but I think we found them. Not much bird activity around Village Ridge, but saw evidence of a pair of turnstones, golden plovers, and both puvilla and bairdii by the North Area. Not enough time to find the nests, as Dave had to return the weasel. Back to the lab to check berlise catch, put up a ♀ phalarope for 9PMH, and write notes. A thick fog came in, so I passed up further field work to clean up and spend the evening in Barrow. 19 June Barrow, Alaska Came in with the vanhaul and retired for a bit more sleep.

Spent the rest of the afternoon working around South Salt Lagoon looking for nests. Found 2 bairdii and 2 pusilla - all with 4 eggs. In the evening went into the Drum area to look for nests. Found a 4-egg pusilla, and localized several others. Drove out to Safrisil's nest in the cemetery; now 4 eggs, so I took the eggs and both adults. 20 June Barrow, Alaska Went out with Dave House and Tom Schwan to Gasline Ridge. Tom found a 1-egg baird nest just west of the gasline. As they took in traplines I & II I wandered south to collect, took a pair of dowitchers and a 7 melanotas. Westerns acting up on Gasline Ridge again- at least 5 birds. Drove back to Britton's area so Tom could check nests. As he did I found a new 5-egg longspur nest across (East) from FAA.

After a hilarious (hysterical?) chase, in the middle of which I found a 4-egg phalarope nest, we succeeded in catching him. Drove to vicinity of traplines IV A-B to take soil samples. 8 duplicate samples of last year - flat north of the traplines- exacty. The other 8 from a low polygon through system ca. 100 m. west. Next drove across Vo th Crossing. Checked the 1-egg bairdii nest - still 1. Went on to collect a 7 melanotos, then returned to lab to process birds and put new samples in extractors. Spent the evening in Barrow at the Nalekatak. 21 June Barrow, Alaska again - in with the man haul, and to tbed for more sleep. Up to empty berlese catch; the polygon system was loaded! Drove out to check bairdii nests by line III B - still 3 eggs and apparently done. On to Gasline Ridge to find the 1-egg nest now empty. Returned the weasel and went out in to the drum area.

After Dinner lay down to rest and couldn't get up again. Felt like I had a bug of some sort. the number of jaspers in the area has picked up, but I have a feeling that a great deal of nest preparation is due to least weasels. We know that there are many weasels and few lemmings in the area - they have to be eating something. Safrail is putting protective wire cage over his sandpiper nests. If preparation continues, it must be weasels. 22 June Barrow, Alaska Even windier today. Spent the morning sorting 800 samples. Went out to the Drum Area with Dave to collect bairdii nests. (See species account.) Checked Tom Custer's nests: the puilla is now empty; the bairdii still 2 eggs and incubating. The incubating bird gave a very well developed distraction display, so I don't think it is a raven nest. Went into Barrow and spent the evening getting completely caught up on

Decided to put our tanglefoots for a 2-day run to desynchronize with soot samples, then go to 3-day periods, so I cleaned and prepared a set of boards. Sorted the remainder of the last set of soot samples, then went out with Dave. Found a large number of new pectorals inaus around Central Marsh. Collected 4 of these. At tanglefoot site II put our the boards and collected 8 soot samples from Central Marsh- sites II-5 & II-6. Back to site I (Micro- Mer). there we put our boards and did a census of lemming nests. Collected a pair of pectorals near there. Drove in to change soot samples and process specimens, then went into Barrow to spend the evening at the Walakatuk. 24 June Barrow, Alaska Still a bitter, cold wind. Spent the morning sorting soot samples and cleaning the next set of tanglefoots. After lunch Dave and I went out to census lemming nests around traplines III and IV.

Been forgetting to mention - the tundra ponds are covered with film of Collembola - both dark and light - more than I've seen in other years. Due to nutrient release? Lots of food for Piesia - wonder if there will be more of them this year. Lemmings - nutrients - Collembola - Piesia - Sandpipers: there's the link. 25 June Barrow, Alaska Up early (!) and out with Dave for trapline check. Spent the morning looking for lemming nests on Beach Ridge east of Micro-Met, and reinforced my belief that, by golly, you see things when you get out and walk. In addition to lemming nests - many preyed - found a melanotus nest with 4 eggs, a bairdii nest with 2 eggs, and 3 and 6 egg longspur nests. Many bairdii along the ridge. In the afternoon greased up some tanglefoots and went out for the first change. At site I looked for more

On the way back stopped by the earlier melanotos nest, but the & was not seen in 40 minutes of watching, so we went in to process prior specimens. Went out after dinner and shot this & and took the clutch. Saw a Mustella erminea under the all-sky camera site in the morning. Saw 2 large shir-piles nearby; this convinced me that the large piles with many skulls, as seen in 1965, belong to this species rather than to rixose. Late in the evening, after processing last & melanotos and eggs, walked into Barrow and wrote field notes there. 26 June Barrow, Alaska Missed the departure for trapline check by trying to get a replacement boat, so I spent most of the morning writing a letter, finishing 500-sample sorting, and working around the lab.

Spent most of the afternoon standing by the weasel and talking about black oil in the Arctic, and any and all related topics. Many pectorals and phalaropes - including northern - in west parts of Footprint lake.

Sorted 800 samples, counted and cleaned the first set of tanglefoots and, in the evening, went out to change tanglefoots. Another beautiful night. Found 2 4-egg bairdii nests on south slope of Beach Ridge. A fair catch on the boards, but no tipulidae. 29 June Barrow, Alaska Finished sorting 800 samples, then went out for a new set. More warm weather, and lots of adult insects - although I saw no tipulidae. The tundra is quite dry, considering the time of year. Beach Ridge is very dry. took 8 cores from Central Marsh, between traplines III & VIII, 8 from low polygon trough system south of Amikpuk, NW of the road across Beach Ridge. The results of 800-sampling these jar indicate that last year's most productive emergence traps - by lines IX & X - will be less productive than the traps by tanglefoots I-1, 2, and 3.

It appears that our paint may be toxic to crane fly; 4 of the 5 marked with a spot in the evening were dead the next morning. I need a large sample to experiment with, so Dave and I opened the site II beer-can traps. 6 July Barrow, Alaska the pleasant weather returned. Dave and I went out to check and finish sealing the emergence traps - caught a Pedicia in trap by traplines IX & X. Spent most of the day checking lemming nests between the two insect sites. Found quite a bit of Dicrostonyx activity - including 6 prepared nests - on the Beach Ridge. In total, we looked at 114 nests today - quite low predation level in Central Marsh and north of Beach Ridge, higher on the ridge. In the evening I counted the site I sticky boards, then went into town to write field notes. Dave collected the incubating 37 Northern Phalarope from Central Marsh.

He put in 4♂ and 1♀ Pedicia. I found 1♂ Pedicia! Decided that we will have to clip the vegetation from the traps to remove hiding places. In briefly, then out to traplines III A-B to take a set of SOD samples. It was there, as everywhere very, very dry. Returned these to the lab, then out to lines IX & X to begin clipping the emergence traps there. In the process, Dave found Pedicia that he otherwise would have missed!

First I finished counting the tanglefoots, wrote the shorebird and insect section of the June progress report and photographed a Bill Barry cartoon. Right after lunch Dave, Tom Schwan, and I went out to finish the clipping and change tanglefoots. At emergence trap (enclosure #4) in Central Marsh we found all 4 of the wing-clipped P. pedicia - 3 alive and 1 dead. So they can live at least 2 days. Returned these to the enclosure. In the evening I got started on tanglefoot counting, then went in to Barrow. Barrow, Alaska More cold weather - a cold July, thus far. Counted more tanglefoots and wrote letters, then went out with Tom and Dave for 500 samples and emergence traps. It just about takes the afternoon to check the 25 traps. The clipping helps - I'm sure we overlooked quite a few P. pedicia in unclipped traps.

MacLean 1969 Journal (11 July) Put the new soo samples in after Dinner. there has been a big drop in both size classes of Pedicis larvae; all indications are that 1970 will be a poor year for Pedicis adults. 12 July Barrow, Alaska I'm falling into a pattern: lab work ( and sleep ) in the morning, field all afternoon, Barrow in the evening. today some unexpected mail - an offer of a 1-year job at the University of Montana- interrupted sorting of soo samples. Emergence traps in the afternoon. In the evening one of the Disney people - Hank Schloss - showed a nature movie re. a bbscar in Louisiana that he has produced. After that we went into Barrow and took in the movie there. Shorebird activity is about down to zero. 2 phalaropes and 7 peleals have departed; other birds are with young and are pretty quiet. there has been an increase in alping display - but I have the strange feeling it is being done by birds with young! In the evening the weather suddenly improved. Saw a flock of 8 black quillenots flying north.

Maclean 1969 Journal 13 July Barrow, Alaska Took the boat up to camp to pick up camera and shotgun, then up to Nuvuk. The day was warm and beautiful. So many olosquaws and quite a few guillemots on the water. The northern- most passerine bird in Alaska - at least for a while - was.... a tree sparrow! Many nesting Bairdii and some pustilla and turnstones there, and many snow-buntings. From the boat we saw 1 spotted seal, several ringed seals, and 4 bearded seals- and us without a rifle. On the way back saw 2 kittiwakes flying north. The warm weather suddenly turned to Bering Sea weather, and we drove home in a hail storm, 14 July Barrow, Alaska Rain all day long. In the morning Dave and I drove out to the fertilizer plot with Arnold Schultz. We placed 3 sticky- boards on the plot and 3 on the adjacent control plot. It is very impressive out there - the plot shows, extensive winter-cutting and many nests. The adjacent controls show almost no cutting

Maclean 1969 Journal (14 July) and no nests. Pitelka has documented this systematically. The vegetation is much breezier, with much more moss and shallow active layer on the plot. What- ever the reason - cover, nutrients, nest- material - the fertilizing has a real effect on the lemmings. Spent the afternoon getting thoroughly rain-soaked in checking emergence drops and taking soil samples. Our grandfather Pédia, put into an enclosure on 8 July, is finally dead. In the evening Pitelka gave a seminar on Microtines and lemming cycles. Afterwards I went into Barrow. 15 July Barrow, Alaska More of the same. Cold, foggy, Bering Sea type weather. Worked in the lab in the morning, emergence traps with Dave and Tom Schwann in the afternoon. Today I wrapped myself in a blanket next to the Tropiline II Golban Plover nest, and I should have some good pictures of the ♀ incubating. The insect emergence has yet to get going in July - it appears that the cold weather may produce the period of emergence. If it is simply a matter of heat summation that would be the result.

MacLean 1969 Journal 16 July Barrow, Alaska Fell behind on tanglefoots and had to count nearly the full set. Tossed all morning. After lunch we went out to change them and check the emergence traps - the best catch to date on both. In the evening I began counting these boards to avoid falling behind again. Pitelka was due to leave this evening, but jog kept the plane away. 17 July Barrow, Alaska Put up a Black guillemot brought in by Harry Brower, then counted tanglefoots for the rest of the morning. After lunch - seed samples and emergence traps. Pitelka managed to leave this evening. Celebrated by going to a movie in town. 18 July Barrow, Alaska More cold weather, with occasional snow flurries. Lab work in the morning, as the snow alternated with rain. In the afternoon the two vans departed. Dave and I drove out to the fertilizer plot to pick up the sticky boards there. Those from the plot were covered with Pedicia; those from the control plot have few Pedicia but more Prioraceae. Suggestive, but it could be due to differences in timing of emergence.

Maclean 1969 Journal (18 July) Dave will take 500 samples there between the 3rd and 4th series — that will tell what is going on. Should be interesting. Not much in the emergence taps. In the evening I lay down for a short nap and couldn't wake up. 19 July Barrow, Alaska Begin 2nd run of the lemming traplined. Dave and I spent the mornings setting our lines XI & XII, I & II. Very little fresh sign — I don't expect much catch. In the afternoon — what else — emergence traps and tanglefoots. Site II S.S. seems to be done. If so, this has been a pretty poor Tipulid year. The 3rd 500 sample series — which begins tomorrow — will tell if more Pedicia larvae are entering their third year than last year. Went in to Barrow, then out to shooting station, in the evening. Joe, Jr., Max, and I took the boat down to Dease Inlet and back in a cold fog. Didn't see any caribou — many Olsquaws on Dease Inlet, a few flocks of king and Common Eiders, several flocks of Black quillworts, and the

Maclean 1969 Journal (19 July) Saw of thick-billed Murres. Saw quite a few birds, including yellow-billed. Returned early. 20 July Barrow, Alaska Up in time for late breakfast. Went our to the traps with a Disney animal trainer - Mario Somebody - and Dave Enea, Coda, and Winny - we collected lots of negative data. After Sunday Dinner and the movie I put in the new 500 samples, then went up to Birknik. 21 July Barrow, Alaska Spent the morning counting tanglefoots, then went into Barrow to go shopping. Returned in time for the emergence trap check - it really looks like the insects are just about gone. Only a few traps are still producing. We took some old 500 samples back out to fill up to holes - replace our divots. In the evening I finished counting the tanglefoots and then went up to shooting station. 22 July Barrow, Alaska Dave and I had to move the lemming traps to lines 3a-b, and 4c-b this morning. No new sign there, either.

MaeLee 1969 Journal (22Jul) In the afternoon - tanglefoot change (nearly done!) and emergence trap check (1♀ Pedicia!). So this has really been a low crane-fly year - all species together, i.e. almost certainly weather-induced. Put up another Black Guillermod after dinner, then caught up on field notes. 23 July Barrow, Alaska More cold West wind; I have never seen so much west wind in a summer. Tanglefoots and extra sleep in the morning. Emergence traps in the afternoon - 1 lonely ♀ Pedicia. I marked ♀ Tipula are more than one week old - that shatters one of my old ideas. The long life span buffers weather induced variation in insect emergence. Safriel seems to think that the burn weather has resulted in adverse feeding conditions for his pusilla, but Norton has seen no evidence for this in alpina or bairdii. It is certain now that the weather does not greatly produce the periods of emergence, as I thought it might. This means we must enter another element into the control of emergence mechanism.

MacLean 1969 Journal (23 July) Spent the rest of the afternoon putting up another Black Guillemot, then counting tanglefoots. In the evening went out with Dave to take 800 samples while he checked traplines. Returned - places these in extractors - processed day's bird catch - and went to Jim Hume's Seminar on beach processes. Finally went up to shooting station to write field notes. 24 July Barrow, Alaska Lines III A-B are cleaning up on birds - including Safrisl's and Norton's marked sandpiper young. Processed these, then spent the rest of the morning beginning the task of packing up the equipment in the lab. Right after lunch Dave and I went out with Arnold Schulte for emergence trap check while he took some soil samples from isotope plot on the Beach Ridge. We assisted in this after checking the site II traps, then on to site I and in. It was cold again today, and the insects have still not gone to zero in the emergence traps. This year, in contrast to last, the emergence traps have caught significantly more 87Sr Pede than 44. The emergence of 87Sr took place later in the season than that of 87Sr. There

MacLean 1969 Journal 24 July two observations must be related. In the evening I had Dave assist Dr. Schulz sort grass from clip quadrats while Edna and I made the evening check of the traplines in a snowstorm! Returned the catch to the lab, drove up to shooting station and broke a track on the weasel. I don't feel too badly - I went to the mechanic's shop today and told them it was going to break. 25 July Barrow, Alaska Dave and I got a truck to go our to pick up lines IVa-b and IIIa-b. Got our repaired (?) weasel back after lunch and went out to check emergency traps, change tanglefoots, and set our traplines V, III, VII, & VIII. The persistent snowstorm and cold winds convinced us to forgo about the latter. What a cold, miserable July this has been! In the evening began counting tanglefoots, then out to Bikenik and into Barrow. 26 July Barrow, Alaska Started our early to set our traplines. Half way out our weasel suddenly died. Walked out to set VII and VIII, then in to camp. After lunch
