Creator Transcript
  • 18 Large flocks (15 to 19) of Pacific loons were also flying in the same direction This migration started at about half tide on the incoming flow. On the way in we stopped at Clayquot [Clayoquot] where Mr [Kenneth] Racey took 2 Savannah Sparrows + a greater Scaup on the sandspit. A Hairy woodpecker taken was feeding young in the nest. [sentence underlined] May 23 [1931] Rain all day. I got up at 4:30 and went round the traps at Chesterman + Garrods [also Garrard and Mackenzie] beach. Saw nothing of interest except a flock of six Harlequin ducks out of which I took one an adult male. The ducks like to feed in the sheltered channels left by the outgoing tide. 3 Harbour seals were swimming in the surf at Chestermans. The rest of the day we skinned. May 24 [1931]. Fine. Got up early and went over to Chestermans beach + round the point to Garrods as usual. On the reef at Chesterman's we saw a large mink walking slowly across the rocks, by a little quick work we cornered + shot him. He was of very large size
