I’m up at 0600 hrs and out paddling by 0700 hrs, determined to avoid all the problems the wind caused me yesterday. I am rewarded with flat calm seas. Paddling is effortless, as I set out for the entrance, which is quite a distance south of the anchorage. On my way, I check out the rock where I found the harlequins and oystercatchers yesterday. Seagulls have taken over the rock.

So, I continue paddling south. It’s such a beautiful calm morning.
When I finally reach the rocks at the entrance, I see not one, but several oystercatchers scouring the rocks for mussels, and whatever other juicy morsels they might find. A few harlequins are working the area also.




















Out in Fisher Channel, I spot the ferry, “Kennicott”, headed south, passed Fog Rocks.
