if there were 10-20 birds circling in one area all the time. Probably 
some birds were going to their nests, as others were coming in the valley. 
Again I think the birds were nesting in this valley, but probably in small 
numbers. We were back at the camp and in the sack by 2330.

Back at Honalei Apts., we cleaned up, caught up on our journals and got
