19 'Afrg 1946 Tay 3 ay, Bylot/ The, e was a colony of tAii&lf 
Thayer's gulls nesting oh the rocks at the mouth of' ‘the 
harbor. I -found -three nests- but there were probably 
more. The old birds zoomed ne continually in the same 
manner I have already described for the glaucous gu„l. 
In one n e st -the two you ng w e r -e-l/3 grown, in another,— 
two l/ 2 g rown , an d in the third, one 2/3 grown. All 
were still downy but had many feathers, especially in 
wings and tail. -Thw -d own-was g ray, spotted-with -black- 
the wings were barred l ike a Plymouth Rock hen's. Bill 
was black and f eet gray. They could not be reached 
to make- a collection. Later,- I saw quite a few 
glaucous and Thay er's gulls flyin, down t he beac h, 
and among them, several young of the year, the hirst 
immatures I have seen of -the-two spee-ies, in the- air, 
that is. Total for day. 20 (g .juv., 1 imm.).
