R.E. Johnson 1968 Journal July 6 Anchutka Island, Alaska Cormorants - 16 on low island SE of island off Makarino pt. unknown bird - one white bird on same island as above. Definitely not an Eider or Gull. Could only see it face on. Seals - 15 seen close to shore around southernmost point of shore before coast turns east. Sea Otter - I nearly stepped on one before noticing him (o). Apparently it was asleep. It jumped back "hissing" & sat 6 ft away watching me. We had a 10 minute chat (I sat down) & it relaxed + continued chewing on the base of some seaweed. Occasionally it turned its back on me to groom + seemed very relaxed. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera. Mallard - 1 pair Bald Eagle - 2 nests were found. (1) a single adult was defending a nest with 2 large young on a sea stack on the east-west running shore line (E. of the pt. described under "Seals" above). The adult usually perched on the roof top of a pyramidal bldg next to a lake. (2) I returned overland to Makarino pt.
