Creator Transcript
  • 12 Found a Northern Ravens nest [underlined]. We were led to this nest by the cries of the youngsters that we heard from about 1/4 mile distant + above the roar of the surf. There appeared to be 2 or 3 young in the nest one of which we succeeded in shooting from the nest by dint of exploding one side of the nest with a heavy charge of no. 4 shot. Took a Peromyscus + a spruce in traps set through the woods. The Pery. [Peromyscus] has a very dark dorsal stripe but the stripe is more confined than in those we took at Tofino. In the afternoon packed our duffel + rowed back to Tofino in about 3 hours - slightly less. Started to rain + blow a brisk S. [South] Easter. May 16. [1931] Skinned our catch of yesterday and cleaned up the cabin in the morning. In the afternoon Mr [Kenneth] Racey went in to Tofino while I set out a line of traps down the road. Judging by the sign I should say that this country was a washout so far as small mammals are concerned All muskeg or thick cedar + salal + always wet underneath Saw a flock of 5 curlew, Shot a single Stellers Jay [underlined]. Rain all day
