Journal RE.Johnson 1968 June 26 Anchitka Island, Alaska (cont.) A few comorants were seen flying near the cliffs on the west side when we lst arrived but not thereafter. One & Lapland Longspur was seen on the Elymus area that slopes toward the water on the north end of the island. An eyrie was found on top a promontory over the west cliffs but it was apparently quite old. An egg (dull white, 5.2 x 7.3 mm, ovate) was buried 2 or 3 inches down within it and a humerus & a portion of body skeleton of a comorant sized bird were found among the old nest material. The egg may have belonged to a Puffin, but certainly the nest did not. Glaucous-winged Gull nests (approx. 10) were found on the east & north sides of the island where the cliffs did not extend all the way straight down into the ocean but rather tapered off to form rocky ridges, ledges, etc. on which nests could be placed. Nest were in spots where at least some vegetation was found, but this was usually scant & patchy making nest locations rather conspicuous. Most nests were empty & young were often hiding nearby, but twice nests contained eggs (one with 1 pipped, another with 2 pipped). On the boat trip back to the harbor we stopped to collect Horned (3) & Tufted Puffins (5),
