Tame gulls of Santa Catalina. a box, the boys amusing themselves by feeding the brown pelicans that swam about a short distance away, and the gulls, that were so tame that Vincente, the head fisher- man, said that down at Avalon he could almost pick up some of them, as they crowded around him, snatching at the fish thrown at them, and presenting a most cu- rious spectacle.
