Weather: visibility dropped in the morning as a wet west wind picked up with driving rain. Wind reached up to 40 knots and pushed in large swells.
Ecologcial:
-As the rain accumulated and low spots started to fill with standing water, the female e-seal (C887) didnt seem bothered about being in a puddle.
-One of the larger male e-seals move up under one of the house decks where i could get an easy photo of the scar pattern on his back. There are so many (4) large males now that it is hard to keep them sorted.
-The Valrossa, an oil/chemical tanker, passed by on its way from Guaymas, Mexico to Cherry Point, USA
Maintenance: Finished energy assessment report.
