- On board USS Cassin. [SS Cassiar] July 31/46. Q.C. [Queen Charlotte] Sound. Yesterday evening off Redfern + Pine islands saw 40 or 50 Calif. [California] Murres both adults + apparent young, About the same number of Rhino. [Rhinoceros] Auklets many of them with a silvery fish in their beaks. Heard some marbled murrelets but did not see them. A dozen or so Pigeon guillemots and the same number of Tufted Puffin. Many phalaropes - apparently red phalaropes + one flock of western sandpipers seen. Watched a Peale's falcon pick a phalarope off the water. This morning in Q.C. [Queen Charlotte] sound saw 7 sooty Albatross at one time, 1 fulmar, 1 sooty shearwater several petrels of both species, 1 rhino [rhinoceros] auklet, 1 tufted puffin + 1 young Peales Falcon. Mr. Vic Heath tells me that on the mainland near the Entrance to Simoom Sound there is a vertical rock face supporting a gull colony. There is a rock off Entrance Island on way into Pacofi that has a gull colony. Watched an Eagle lift a young gull from it Reef Isl. [Island] looks very good for Perys [Peromyscus]. Good camp ground (apparently) on N.E. [northeast] corner Seal Isl [Island] - about 5 acres, well timbered.
