Field Notes
Doug Bell
August 18, 1989
compared to Canada . 2 frozen laps & the tank
was "68.00" Net load.
Said goodbye
to John Piatt , Scott Hatch & Brian Fadel.
Flown out of Anchorage at 17:30. The flight
was nearly all clouds - couldn't see much, and
it got dark pretty quick. Arrived in Seattle
22:40, Ken picked me up at the airport.
August 19, 1989
In Seattle, WA; at Ken & Sara's House.
Some fledgling crows still about, and plenty of
Starlings. High clouds.
August 20, 1989
Helped Ken fix his Chrysler 6 HP outboard,
then drove up to Anacortes, took Jerry to Friday
Harbor to pick up my gulls. Light rain, also
smoke (pulp mills) in the San Juans. Kind of
sad to be back at Friday Harbor for the last time.
Met Flow at dinner at the Pub - Rio. Oh ja,
say 2 Bald Eagles on the side over, as well
as a nest on SW corner of Shaw Island.
Lots of gulls at Friday Hbr - many Bonapartes
CV6 fledglings, several Herons. Many
Archer Warhams in town. Caught the 20:30
ferry back to Anacortes. Dark & drizzle.
