Daily observations of birds from the Toolik Naturalist Journal, Toolik Field Station, Alaska, 2006-2019

The Toolik Field Station - Naturalist Journal is a daily collection of observations of weather, wildlife, and phenological characteristics around the Toolik Lake region. The bird records are from as far south as Travis creek (50 kilometers (km) south of Toolik on the Dalton Highway) to as far north as Ice cut (~65 km north of Toolik on the Dalton Highway). Birds are recorded if they are seen, heard, or if in the daily comments there is a record of an bird being seen. Birds not listed in the comments are recorded as common or rare. Rare birds are those that are rarely seen in the Toolik area. Birds are not specifically searched for on a daily basis, all observations are happenstance. During the months of May-September observations are made daily along the Dalton Highway. From October to April, observations are most often limited to the area directly around Toolik Field Station out to Imnaviat Creek (~5 km from Toolik Field Station). Weather conditions greatly impacts sightings of birds, on a cold windy or rainy day there are frequently fewer sightings. However, best efforts are made to record the birds that are present.

图利克野外站-博物学家日志（Toolik Field Station - Naturalist Journal）是关于图利克湖区域天气、野生动物及物候特征的每日观测记录集合。鸟类记录的范围南至特拉维斯溪（位于道尔顿公路上图利克以南50公里处），北至冰切（位于道尔顿公路上图利克以北约65公里处）。若鸟类被目击、听到，或每日评论中存在其目击记录，则予以记录。未在评论中列出的鸟类被记录为常见或稀有；稀有鸟类指图利克地区极少出现的种类。每日并未专门搜寻鸟类，所有观测均为偶然所得。5月至9月期间，每日沿道尔顿公路进行观测；10月至次年4月期间，观测范围通常局限于图利克野外站周边区域，最远至伊姆纳维亚特溪（距图利克野外站约5公里）。天气条件对鸟类目击情况影响显著，寒冷、多风或雨天的目击次数通常较少，但工作人员仍尽最大努力记录现存鸟类。
