Creator Transcript
  • 15 May 20 [1931]:- Took one [word crossed out] two more Microtus on the Reef - one large female + a very small juvenile. Also took another Pery. [Peromyscus] very dark with black flanks as in the last. Set trap for mink - came round by Chestermans + Garrod's [also Garrard and Mackenzie] beaches no shorebirds in evidence. In afternoon we rowed over to the buoy off Meares Island and put out two cod lines. Took a Spotted Sandpiper and saw a large number of Pacific loons. Heavy rain in the morning May 21 [1931]. Went over to Chesterman's beach again. 3 Harbour Seals were playing around in the surf, coming right into shallow water + splashing + diving over sideways bringing one flipper + the entire hind end of the body out of the water as it dined. Caught one peromyscus. In the evening walked down the road as far as Hildebrand's. Saw one Doe Coast Deer. Still in winter pelage. The Deer here have never been taken with more than 3 points. Two being about 99% of those taken. A good sized buck weighs in the neighbourhood of 100 lbs. [pounds] and average two pointers
