Boats/Visitors/Sightings

  • An average number of ecotour boats
  • There was a man who arrived close to the reserve in a row boat. Upon talking to him I learned that he rowed here all the way from Port Angeles and was headed to Victoria, but the tide pushed him to Race Rocks instead. After rowing around the reserve for a few minutes, he headed on to Victoria.

Bird Notes

  • Noticed a sudden rise in number of immature gulls. Photographs below.

Marine Mammals

  • The latest elephant seal count is at 5 males and 1 female.
  • There are two California Sea Lion young ones around the jetty, with an adult (presumably the mother).
