As the opportunities for bird collecting are apparently rather sparch 
it is criticul thet one is able to shave maximum fire power to get out 
the greatest numb- e of shots at one bird at a short length of time if 
we are going to collect many birds. This is why we feel that it will be 
worth while to invest in a more exspensive pump gun, 
We ere somewhat ahead of shedul due to the small amount of collect¬ 
ing we have been able to do and should come off the study area grid 
sometime on day 12. 
Day 11 
Sunning into the wind most of today, wind from the northeast 
at 8 to 10 nots. Scattered clouds, few showers, hot, seas from the 
south east, swells 10 to 15 feet high. The ship has been rolling quite 
a bit today the worst we have had this trip. 
Birds siteing were about ever-me today we got a good look at 
a couple of Newseelend Shearwaters but were not able to collect them. 
Still only one marked bird has been noted we saw a few feeding groups 
of sooty terns today. 
We are now about 10 hours ahead of schedule due to come off the 
grid about 2000 hours tomorrow Day 12. The ship is due to go hilo after 
the trip for four or five days so I think we will all fly back to Honolulu 
from there. Pat and Bob went to work in the Bishop Museum before comrlete- 
iigthe report on this trip.
