Boats/Visitors:
- Lots of things going on over the last days!
- A work crew came out and replaced the roof on the boat house, tank shed, and crane control room.
- The old shingles and tar paper are heavy! Removing them is messy work – but headway has been made. I think one more load taken away in Second Nature would deal with the leftovers.
- Today Mara returned, catching a ride with a water delivery.
-
- The work begins…
-
- The roofing team works quickly!
-
- A seal invades the worksite, it returned to the ocean unharmed.
-
- In a day and a half, the roofs were replaced.
-
- The cleanup crew hard at work.
Ecological:
- Sea lions are taking over! Their numbers continue increasing.
- I’ve seen young seagulls land in the shallow water by the jetty, only to have a sea lion come up under it and eat it whole.
- The adult seagulls have started to chase and peck at their own young. I think this is probably to encourage their independence.
