8-Dec. At about noon took short excursion up beach from pier to south point. 9 seals were on the point including one very small specimen but none were tagged. Two more seals were in the first clump of shrubbery coming back from the point. One was tagged 275. At K47 Two more seals were in the shrubbery. One was tagged 200 While banding birds with Ken towards this area banded a bird and displaced it from its nest. Ken brought me a second bird from a nearby nest which I banded and released the second bird immediately went to the first nest (about 15 feet from its own) and settled upon it. The first bird returned to the nest, looked puzzled and nudged its head under the second bird and pushed against it lightly. There was no active agonistic behaviour but both bird sporadically bill clapped. Perhaps this is low intensity agonistic behaviour. When we left the second bird was still firmly entrenched on the nest.
