Field Notes Doug Bell July 13, 1988 guess, no trees. Widely-spaced pairs of resting gulls visible, some incubating. Clummed gulls in thread, shot 5 gulls (8 shells, of which one bird was hit twice, but flew on). I sort of had to wait for adult C-WC's to come by out of all the immen and Ring-bills (OAB 389-393). We drove straight back to the lab. Saw one ad. Bald Eagle. Rained a bit. More Marbled Murrelets. Whole trip took us 10:30-12:30. Spot spent rest of day doing gulls on Marine Lab dock at Bamfield. Saw resident Bald Eagles here - at least one adult, one 1 yr.-bird, and one sub-adult. At one time 4 birds were soaring over the station. Much lack-a-faith flying up and down the channel. Weathering clearing at times. Kingfisher, Violet-green Swallow, Barn Swallows, Winter Wrens, Summer's Thrushes around. One Great Blue Heron is particularly vocal. We moved across to the store at dusk, quite calm. July 14, 1988 Organized early. Out with the Whale at 08:40, headed for Braeria Rocks again. Very calm. Many pairs of Marbled Murrelets, quite close. Low tide exposed much more area around the rocks, as well as several rocks to the NW where we were looting yesterday while shooting gulls. Collected 5 birds rather quickly, one required 3 shots. In all 8 shells for 5 birds, no wounded. Nearly all the birds got
