Dan and I went for a morning paddle around the islands. There was a bit more wind and current than last time but not too bad. The wind was from the ESE, so we decided to head down between the Chathams instead of to the east side. I was almost caught against the rocks by a freighter wake but managed to stay upright and afloat! The birding highlight today was seeing several groups of ancient murrelets. One group was pushing a school of small fish to the surface and gulls were taking advantage from above.
