One correction, one important addendum:
Correction: “From one local fisherman PLYING his trade, “this is my home.”
Addendum: Bird Notes: I had mentioned seeing my first Black-footed Albatross on 24 July. During the passage, I saw a few more on the evening watch 30 July AND identified a NEW BIRD, many Leach’s Storm Petrels.
Prequel: The Black Turnstones arrived in Prince Rupert yesterday. Locals call them Kee Kee birds for their incessant, loud chatter which is quite similar to that of their cousin, the Ruddy Turnstone.
A float-full of Black Turnstones trying successfully to keep a Short-billed Gull in their midst from getting a decent nap.
