Final exam/assignments the past week have kept me very busy, so here is an update on the current elephant seals
Weather
- Visibility: 15 Miles

- Sky: Overcast
- Water: Waves 1-2 metres
Boats/Visitors
- No boats out there today
Ecological
- There are 3 mature females, one young male and the pups are still here. I have not seen any molting yet, the females will be going through that soon
- There are 3 goose nests that I’ve seen, I attempted to addle the eggs but there was no getting past those geese which seem extra vicious this year
- Still about 100 sea lions, mix of california and stellar, mostly california
- Theres usually nearly 50 or 60 harbour seals out on the rocks, not today due to the storm
