Field Notes Doug Bell May 31, 1989 grass area near the Lighthouse. Jan Hoddard came out around 14:00. We watched gulls for awhile, then I packed up my traps and we left. Spent rest of day processing the four gulls. Saw imm. Bald Eagle fly up the Charleston Slough; heading north. Sunset. June 1, 1989 Picked up key to the gate + Lighthouse(!) from Chief Miller. Spent most of 09:30-15:00 in Lighthouse watching gulls & recording morphotypes for gulls. Extremely foggy; could barely see the peninsula of the island. Then weighed & measured eggs of 21 pairs. Made an independent count of gull morphotypes for the peninsula area; out to west end as far as I could see. The far west portion was shrouded in fog. Ratios: 113:4:2 WG:H:GWG. June 2, 1989 Drove from Charleston, OR to Newport, OR. Weather very windy; heavy fog on coast, warm weather inland. Went out to Yaquina Head from 19:30 - 21:15. Noted gull morphotypes for a small colony on south [grassy] slope of Lighthouse. The rock offshore of the head seems to have more Murre and Cormorants this year. The entire flat top is covered in Murres + Brandt's Cormorants. There are definitely several more Pelagic Cormorants on the shelves below the rim on N. side of head. Gulls also around.
