Creator Transcript
  • Journal. Rose Harbour. Aug. [August] 17/46 [1946]. Spent most of today getting our camp squared away + packed for the return trip to Charlotte, however [Howard] Fairbairn did not show up + we are spending another night on Kunghit. At dusk we had another try for the one bat we have seen here, Charlie [Charles J. Guiguet] hit the beast but it fell in some very dense vegetation + we were unable to recover it. On board Ila. Aug. [August] 18/46 [1946]. Left Rose Harbour at 10:30 with tide behind us + wind in our faces. Some 90 glaucous winged gulls + 20 +/- Rhinoceros auklets in the entrance to Houston Stewart Channel, also 2 Red Phalaropes working on drifting kelp Saw one white winged scoter + one Brandts cormorant there also. Rose [word crossed out] Langtry Island at the S [South] entrance to Carpenter Bay looks very likely as a bird colony. A small grove of trees but lots of grass. Rankin Island, the easternmost of the two, also looks like a good spot but has more timber + less grass. Rounding Deluge point we proceeded to Burnaby Narrows where we had to put in an hour waiting for the tide.
