I reported that the weather was partly cloudy: large Cumulus clouds but additionally there was some light rain. The only live wildlife we saw were birds: Whimbrels, Crows, Western Gulls, and one Brown Pelican.

It was a very stormy day but since it was so late in the year we wanted to do a survey while the tide was low, regardless of the weather. There was one place where there was recent erosion of the cliff.
