Ecological Notes:
- 6 Elephant Seals – turns out to be at least 1 juvenile male! So,currently 5 females and 1 male (no new animals, just new id’s)
- Elephant Seal pups: 2, but also, 1 of the pups appears to be a male as well!
Enjoying the sun
- No real changes in Sea Lion or Harbour seal numbers
- Have been seeing the Sea Otter at lower tides in the uncovered kelp forests
Facility Work:
- Piling firewood, more sorting old materials
Feature Event:
- Figuring out month end reports and procedures ( I’m the new guy) :)
- Not everything is glamorous! Gauges and meters need batteries……
- This is why you always wear a life jacket on the pier
Weather Events:
- Sunny, with medium to high westerly winds all day
- Last night was very high winds! Kept the flag down last night and today.
