November 3 - Discovery Island (#21)

I paddled out to Cadboro Point to join Dan and Paulo for a morning paddle around the islands. Conditions were nice with little wind and a relatively weak ebb. Nice birding (https://ebird.org/checklist/S201321337) and nice conversation! I thought it was cool that I saw blackish oystercatchers in Patagonia earlier in the week and a black oystercatcher today! Had a short play in the sluice and met some SISKA paddlers out with Jo on the way back across Baynes. You can definitely see the current effect by comparing speeds on the southbound and northbound tracks
