To north end to spend night for
petrels. Went to near north side
Island found goats along cliffs eat
hard lichens in some places Redtail
& Buchnera beyond pines, ferns
growing on several pines & got a
bunch in north side cliff at top where
goats can't reach. Summit juniper
rockworm with helictus communis. Thumars
passed Spring while I was drinking
10 crossbills heard seen day a lot of
wet petrels, but found none.
At night lit fire for an hour 1/2,
but now later about only heard
4 or 5 in air. Clear starlit
night perhaps a probably accounts
had it been fizzy would be different
