content: The notes document M. Moynihan's observations of Laridae (Gulls), 1953 at the "Hearth". Most notes are typed. Entries are headed by week with date and describe behavior, appearance, movement within environment (i.e. flight), and time of day. Behaviors observed are highlighted in the text, usually denoting the behavior by indicating if it is a description (aerial display) or by intent (i.e. aggression, courtship). Entries are indexed. Includes list of observed behaviors relating to described intent and related dates. Contains counts of success and failure of attempted copulation.

label: Abstract

content: The journal documents Florence Bailey's travel and observations in Maine, 1911. In the front of the volume is a loose insert listing locations, vegetation, types of habitat, birds observed. Pages are numbered. Entries are not continuous. There are often blank pages in-between. Some journal entries are dated, others headed with type of environment (pastures, cranberry bog, [type of tree] swamps), type of plant (ferns, flowers), or name of town. They begin June 23, 1911 and are often headed with location. They describe travel from Washington to Maine with time in Canada (Montreal), travel details (mode of transportation, accommodations), observations of vegetation, descriptions of behavior and appearance of birds. Some lists of vegetation include notes about descriptions and habitat, and sometimes date. There is a miscellaneous heading describing other fauna observed (insects, snakes). Locations include Fryeburg Harbor and North Waterford.

content: This field book documents Cooper's paleontological and geological field work in Glass Mountain, West Texas from 11-30 May 1958. Cooper describes stratigraphy of sites visited (with sketches and measurements of some layers) and notes fossils found or commonly found at various levels. Fusulines, various genera of brachiopoda, and possibly other types of fossils were found. Fossils possibly from lower Permian epoch. Locations include but are not limited to Leonard Mountain, Hess Ranch, Wolf Camp Hill, and Cathedral Mountains. The maps contain alphanumeric codes corresponding to a locality. Cooper uses these codes throughout his notes to refer to localities. Some coordinates are included. Pages 0485-0538.

content: This item consists of a folder of data collected at sea by Pacific Ocean Biological Survey Program staff, 1964, on the Northern Grid Survey 11. The Northern Grid Survey was conducted of a square section of the Pacific Ocean. The route of the ship was from the grid area to French Frigate Shoals, Leeward Islands to Oahu (Hawaii). Materials include bird observation data, fix data sheets, graphs, and weather and barometric data. Bird observations data sheets include entries for time, species, #, dir., hgt., and remarks. Other handwritten bird observations record group name, species, number (total), sightings, birds per sighting, birds per mile. Fix data sheets include entries for date, time, sunset time, position sunset, time of fix, type of fix, longitude, and latitude. Data charts include graphs that map quantity of birds observed by date; temperature, humidity, and wind speed by date, and dot map of bird population in the grid. Also included is a typed progress report.

content: This field book is a diary from 25 March to 24 June 1930 documenting Graham's field collecting trip to Li Chuang (currently Lizhuang), Chuan Gioh Chi, Chungking (currently Chongyang?), and the Suifu vicinity. Graham provides a narrative description of daily activities including amounts and types of specimen he and associates collected or purchased. This journal seems to focus more on specimens purchased than collected. Graham collected or purchased mammals, birds, insects, snails, and possibly other specimen. Mammal numbers range from 372-424. Graham also describes how specimens were packed for the mail. Graham also collects artifacts and makes takes anthropological measurements of local men and women during this trip. No scientific names are provided.
