(8) Below Vista Pt., Marin Co., Calif. Bill Arvey Journal Nov.4, 1946 maybe 50 ft. high, it's more massive--anyway the small Pelagic just jumped out onto this small rock. It's probably a first year because it had alot of brown feathers on the breast and undersides whereas the back has some of the typical iridescent green feathers, too. The pupil of the eye seems to be darker than the Brandts which has a definite bluish tinge. Can't see any color on the throat. Alot of the feathers on the body seem definitely wet. Another 5-min. check: In--0; Out--14. The tide definitely seems to have lowered since I got here; some of the rocks are exposed down here that weren't before.(located between shore and the big rock) A cormorant went down right in front of me about 3 seconds ago; it should be easy to follow him. Back up in 40 sec. Doesn't have anything to swallow. A Pelagic. Dove after 13 sec., a shallow dive again. Up in 30 sec. I guess it's a Brandt. Down after 10 sec. Up in 28 sec. Down in 10 sec. Up in 31 sec. Down in 12 sec. Up in 31 sec. Seems to be making a series of short, shallow dives. Down in 12 sec. Hasn't caught anything yet. Now he's by the closest rock that has the Pelagic Cormorant on it. Up in 30 sec. Down after 20 sec. Up in 28 sec. He covered alot of distance; maybe he's moving laterally across the surface; 20 or 30
