Bird siahtinars uerp about evpre^e today. We srot a ’■ood look 
at e couple of New Zealand shearwaters but were not able to collect 
them. Still only one marked bird has been noted. Saw a few feeding groups 
of Sooty Terns today. 
V.© are now about 10 hours hhe^ d of schedule; 'ue to come off the 
grid about 20^0 tomorrow. The ship is due to e*o to Hilo after the trip 
for 4 or 5 dtsys, so I think we will all fly back to Honolulu. Hat end 
Bob want to check in the Bishop Museum before completing the report on 
this trip.
