November ^ — Up early for a day of observations from north tower. Worked 
at this from 0800 - 1150 and 1520-1650. Jim was siaulataneously observing 
south end of island from radar tower while Bill checked his traps. 
Seme general notes on activities after one day of observing — no Fairy 
Terns seen in afternoon: only one noddy seen in early afternoon, then 
several late (15^0). A few frigates were seen soaring over lagoon 
late in morning; always several in afternoon until - 1600 when activity 
dropped off. Very little activity from 1500-1500 except frigates and 
occasional booby, then picked up past this hottest part of day. Much 
preening all day during molt. 
Went out after dark after albatross. Gob first Laysan, on west 
beach south of dock, plus largest number of new individuals — over forty. 
Also got several frigates, ten red-footed boobies.

Saw about thirty albatross along the beach all day — five just below
