Part 2 of Preliminary Report 
Eastern Pacific Survey No. 2, Non-grid Portion; 18 and 27 Jan., 1957 
The non-grid portion of this report deals with only two days of observa¬ 
tion. On 18 January observations were made between Port Hueneme and Point 
Conception (see map l), and on 27 January between the end of the eastern grid 
and Long Beach, California. Non-grid observations are summarized in table 
six; the two days are treated separately to preserve the impressive difference 
between coastal and pelagic bird populations. 
Mammals seen in non-grid areas are covered in the grid section of this 
report. 
Eastern Pacific Species accounts-Non-grid, January 1967 . 
Albatross, Shearwaters , and Petrels 
No albatross were noted in the coastal waters; however, it is probable 
that stragglers wander inshore on occasion. 
Shearwater/Petrels were represented only by Fulmars in the coastal area. 
This species was also present in the Grid, but was most concentrated in areas 
within 75 miles of land. 
No Storm Petrels were noted in the coastal waters, but undoubtedly occur 
Pelicans and Cormorants 
Pelicans and Cormorants are frequently noted in coastal waters; none 
were seen far at sea. However, it is quite probable that some cormorants 
occur well offshore, especially during migration. 
Gulls 
Glacous-winged Gulls were present both at sea and along the coast, but 
unlike the pelagic group, the coastal population is composed ot both adults 
and immatures. 
Western Gulls were found only along the coast. The density figures
