late spring early summer 2021
Right,
so here are some photos from boat rides to seal island mostly the order they appear in is haphazard
I see Razorbills, Great Cormorant, Arctic terns, Puffins, Black Guillemots, Common terns , Double-crested Cormorant, daily, Murre most days, also Wilsons Petrels, gannets are becoming more frequent, I have seen just two sooty shearwater and one Manx, but expect more shearwaters before long, also Eider, Black-backed Gulls, Laughing Gulls and Herring Gulls, there has been a Peregrine at Seal Island.
The Red-billed Tropicbird has been out there,
There have been a few Harlequin ducks at Brimstone.
Porpoise and Grey Seals every day, though the porpoise have been fairly few,

June 14th Seal Island, Peregrine
I took a few days to go inland to Baxter, my hiking buddies Flo and Troy on the table lands
The Great Norther Diver
Ok it looks as if we are back on the coast, it makes me wonder, why don't Gannets go fishing in fresh water, there was a greater shearwater on Rangely lake so I suspect there have been gannets on lakes but they seem to be great at not going inland.
