The Cliffs of Otter: Day 235


A view of the western face of Otter Island on a nice day. Spectacular stratified depositional layers create uniform lines of nesting seabirds, all standing in a row. We had hoped to do a complete count of red-faced cormorants on Otter a few days back while onboard the Tiglax, but strong winds and rough seas forced us to count only the lee. It's pouring rain out this morning, but if and when the weather improves, we hope to skiff back out to Otter and finish the job.
