Saturday Update

A bit of a grey day to start but turned out to be quite nice! 

The early morning rain helped with cleaning the solar panels and windows, so I can’t complain. 

Ollie is back in his usual bed of kelp behind the student house, and after the strong winds, the pelican has also returned to the rocks near the jetty. 

I haven’t seen the entangled Steller in a few days but I’m hoping he reappears so we can help him! I did see a whale finally today, I think it was a humpback but I just saw one quick spout and it was very far away. I’m still here for a few more days so hopefully get more! 

Facility Work:

  • Topped up battery electrolytes and took specific gravity readings 
  • Ran and equalization charge on the batteries

  • Cleaned main house windows (they always get so salty after windy days) 
  • Fixed the electric fence on the jetty
