Creator Transcript
  • Sciurus July 27 [1939] Squirrels have been seen on most of the Islands visited so far. They have been collected on Spider, Calvert + Campbell. I have found the coastal squirrels to be extraordinarily shy + quiet in comparison to those encountered in the interior of southern Vancouver Island. Repeatedly I have attempted to shoot them after hearing them scold + only once, on Campbell been successful in collecting one. so far. To-day I heard one scolding violently in bush I rowed to the shore directly opposite the spot where he was + quietly stepped into the bush to stalk him, but as soon as I took two steps in the dry salal he shut up + could not be induced to show himself or to resumed scolding by any means within my power. This is only one instance of many similar ones.
