Some bird observations for late August-early September 1978, are summarised. The Siberian tattler is recorded for the first time in Western Samoa and two seabirds (crested tern and little tern). A new breeding record for the brown booby is also described. Some brief comments are made on comparative behaviour with Fijian land birds.
