Kayaking in the harbor today I went over to the island breakwater to check on the nesting Brant's Cormorants. Today I counted twenty birds sitting on nests, as seen from the west. You might be able to see them from the dock area, since many were on the top of the breakwater. Also seen were many Western Gull nests, and even three little fuzzy chicks, just as cute as a Western Gull ever gets. The Common, Red-throated and single Pacific Loons were still paddling around. The Common Loons were in breeding plumage. I can't forget to mention the hundreds and hundreds of Brown Pelicans. Did not see any Elegant Terns. Did see a few Pigeon Guillemots. Gotta love those red feet!
