Creator Transcript
  • Harlequin Ducks. August 19. 1939 North end of Banks Island. B.C. [British Columbia] Off the north end of Banks among the outer Islets + in the large kelp patches I found several flocks of Harlequin in the flightless stage. They were quite wary + I succeeded in collecting only three specimens. When chased they would disappear in a miraculous manner, By diving and coming up in the big kelp patches where they were invisible. I found remains of a Harlequin on a log on a high rock apparently eaten by a falcon.
