 all years. A nest had 5 eggs there on 9 June 1984 (D. R. Hertcr et al., 

 personal communication). At Goodnews and Chagvan bays, a male was 

 displaying on 22 May 1987 (D. F. Parmelee and J. M. Parmelee, unpub- 

 lished). In 1974, one bird was incubating six eggs on 12 June, adults were 

 carrying food by 20 June, and young were independent by 19 July, 

 although some young were still fed by adults on 24 July. At Round Island, 

 a nest had five eggs on 14 June 1972 (E. H. Miller, unpublished) and 

 25 birds were seen there on 27 June 1976 (R. Macintosh, unpublished). 

 Fall migrants were first seen along rivers in lower elevations at the 

 Tuluksak River on 5-25 August (1962-81) and at the Kisaralik River on 

 27 July 1979. Birds were along the coast as late as 27 September 1973. 

 Coastal migrants were in the vicinity of Slug Mountain on 28 July, and at 

 Cape Peirce by mid-August in all years.

We found waxwings at the Salmon, Aniak, Tuluksak, and Togiak 

 rivers; one bird was seen at the Kisaralik River on 21 June 1987 (B. J. 

 McCaffery, personal communication). Several territorial pairs were seen 

 at the Salmon and Aniak rivers in 1974 and 1986 but not in 1977 or 1979. 

 We saw single pairs or birds at the Tuluksak River on 9 July 1979, 27 July 

 1981, from 14 June 1983, and from 3 August 1986; and small flocks were 

 there on 14-15 October 1977 and 5 November 1979- Two birds were at 

 the upper Togiak River on 5 August 1973.

 Three to eight broods fledged young in 8 years of incomplete counts 

 along 48 km of streams at the Tuluksak River. Birds were seen at the 

 KisaralikRiverin 1982 (MindeU 1983), in 1985 (13, 15, 18, and 26 August; 

 M. Brown et al., unpublished), and in 1987 (16-21 June; B. J. McCaffery, 

 personal communication); and at the Eek River in summer (R. Baxter, 

 unpublished). One bird was seen at Kagati Lake on 20 August 1962 (M. J. 

 Fry, unpublished). Territorial birds used open low forest or broken tall 

 shrub areas, usually on lower terraces and hillsides 75-360 m asl. Young 

 moved to lower elevations in the valley floors after the nesting season. 



At the Tuluksak River, one shrike nest contained four young near 

 fledging on 17 July 1962. In 1974, scolding adults were first found on 



27 June, young fledged on 13 July, independent young were present by 



28 July and still present to 28 August. We found full-grown, dependent
