Field Notes Doug Bell July 28, 1988 was low, so we could walk out to the small island. A couple people were ahead of us when I saw a year-old tiered Peali Peregrine come powering around the point [illegible] from the south and head out over the bay, only to turn and come back in to land in a spray behind us. I ran back to the car to get my scope. Before I could set it up the tiered took off and flew straight to the rocks way out by the island, he chased several cystercatchers, then landed on a rock. Through the scope I could see his dark head, with long thick malaris. His breast was fairly light, but his belly had the classic chocolate-felled contour feathers. just beautiful. The people ahead of us must have moved him up, for he took off and returned to the spray or behind us. Out of view, though. The rocky shores & flats had lots of sandpipers (Western?), oystercatchers, Bald Eagles, too. The only gulls visible were way to the south - barely in view. I think there were many gulls on one island which may have been Skedars Island. We drove back up to Sandspit (Bald Eagle, Harriet Thurster). Then out to the creek just west of celiford Bay. Wanted to collect gulls at the creek, lent joint didn't get a chance for a clear shot. A couple Dall's Porpoises came by close to shore. one gull tried to hussel a Bald Eagle.
