WEATHER: Max 10.1ºC -- Min 8.1ºC -- Reset 8.9ºC Rain 14.6mm
Total Rain fall 108.1mm for the month of October 2001- Mean high temp. 11.5ºC -- Mean low temp. 8.1ºC
MARINE LIFE: A blustery start to the day again but the weather did not seem to bother the mature Bald Eagle that arrived shortly after 9:00 and stayed for over two hours.We noticed the second visitor at 12:50 just west of Gr. Race,a lone transient bull Orca. He 'cruised' along the shore of North Rocks and Gr. Race and then into the kelp bed on the east side of Gr. Race.The Harbour seals were very agitated,crowded together close to shore, bobbing up and down to watch for the whale. Interestingly several groups of sea lions(steller&california) followed along about 200' behind the Orca. Watched through the telescope one group of 10-12 sea lions follow the Orca about a mile east when we lost sight of them.

Although the wind got up to 20-22 knots late morning, by 14:00 the cool northerly eased off to a dull rainy afternoon.
MARINE LIFE: There are fewer than 100 Sea Lions hauled out but we have over 500 gulls,Glaucous-winged,Western and a few Herring gulls. We counted 190 Cormorants,mostly on North Rocks.The immature Bald Eagle that spent most of the day on the high point of the rocks just SE of Gr. Race saturday and again sunday has not been back - maybe the immature gull it caught and ate was enough gull for a while, their preferred food is fish. We do not usually see many Eagles out here this time of the year as they congragate at the rivers like Goldstream which are full of salmon returning to spawn.

The poor quality video from camera#1 and especially #3 is because of the sheets of rain driven by the 45-50knt. winds we are enjoying at this time! The visibility is very poor but looks like all but 8 or 9 sea lions have moved into the water, the aprox. 300 gulls are all huddled together in small groups facing into the westerly.13 Black Oyster Catchers are together in a small depression on the east side of Gr. Race in the shelter of the house.

If you were watching camera #1 or #3 in the last few minutes you may wonder why the Sea Lions all rushed into the water,well the D.N.D. are preforming explosive exercises. Yesterday morning we counted 580 sea lions hauled out on the various islets but after three 'blast 'series fewer than 50 sea lions remained hauled out, by 2 p.m. when the blasting had ended for the day we counted only 9 sea lions hauled out on the rocks. This morning fewer than 100 sea lions had returned to the haul out areas. The first blast today at aprox. 10:28 alerted the animals and the second blast about 2 minutes later scared all but 23 into the water. Since the two blasts 10:51 and 10:53 only 17 animals are stilled hauled out!
