Field Notes
D.A. Bell
13 June 1990
about the gorge & down out our motor, then came back &
landed on stump above cluck, bobbing at us. After 10 min.
we left the observation stump and went down to the
landings. Struggled to get all the gear and lost in the
water - good swells, tide lowes. Noticed we were filling up
water as one sat around in the boat. Headed east along
N shore of Langara. Fired off some shots in a couple
inlets to check for penguins. Eagles scared up in
the inlet E of Langara Light Station. Then we got to
the inlet @ Sealion Rocks. Fired off a shot - to scare
up one falcon - looked like a turnch- Thought we might
try landing at an inlet E of this spot, but the low tide
was not good. Since we were filling up so fast, we
decided to keep going around E and to get back to
the cabin in Fury Bay. Met John (of Lang. Lodge) in
strait between Langara & Lucy Is. He gave us some
sandwiches, so we really had great lunch (please
the lunch the Lightstation people gave us. Got load back
in rough SW winds to the cabin about 15:30.
Wayne fixed tires a tires in the boat while I worked
on the 2 gull specimens.
