- July 17/65 [1965] Port Harvey, East Cracroft Island.
Left Skull Cove at 10:30 hrs [hours] + had an
excellent sail as far as Pultney [Pulteney] Point, with
15 mile + winds. Lost the wind there + powered
the rest of the way.
Off the S.E. [southeast] end of the Gordon Islands again
found large concentrations of phalaropes feeding
mostly northerns say 20,000 [+/-], along with them
a few reds. No other noteworthy vertebrates.
In Skull Cove saw a lone young Marbled
Murrelet.
July 18/65 [1965] Campbell River, B.C.
Left our anchorage at Port Harvey at 10:30
+ powered out into Johnstone Strait where
we picked up a westerly wind + had a fine
sail southward for almost 8 hours. Had
to power the final 7 miles to Seymour Narrows
which we passed 1 hr [hour] before slack on a
flooding tide.
The only biological observations of note
were the very large numbers of Marbled
Murrelets. These reached greatest concentration
in the 10 miles before Seymour Narrows +
from there to Campbell River. No count was
attempted but several hundred birds were
involved. No young among them.
20-30 Bonaparte Gulls in the southern end of
the Strait.
