Boats/Visitors/Sightings

• Plenty of ecotours, whalewatchers around today, by the way they were circling the kelp patch I assume the otter was there

Island maintenance

• had to run the generator for a few hours today because there was not a lot of sunlight
• also cleaned off the camera by the helicopter pad, received a message saying the cameras were getting difficult to see through

Bird notes

• Nice to see a few younger seagulls around, they were already a decent size and lost their baby feathers by the time I got here last september

Marine mammals

• Plenty of sea lions already on the main island, will need to put up a fence soon to keep them away from important areas, such as the generator room, don’t want to run into them if I need to get to the generator
