Johnson 1968 July 8 Amclitka Island, Alaska Pumphouse Lake Censuses Greater Scaup 1 pair, 6 \u20ac Teal 22 \u20ac, 9 \u26a1 Red-throated Loon - 1 Northern Phalarope - pair Collected 1,N. phalarope & 3 Longspurs near lake shore. Several Glaucous-winged Gulls chased a Bald Eagle (adult) for over \u00bd mile & then chase it back again toward Pumphouse Lake.
