We had planned to stay in Ocean Falls for a week to 10 days, but the miserable weather has changed our minds. I did manage to get in one paddle to the Martin River. There weren’t many birds around, other than these Honkers.

I spotted this Blue Heron.

And, the seals escorted me all the way.

There are still plenty of berries for the birds and bears.

Al had 10 large male crabs in the trap when he pulled it this afternoon. He only kept 4, since that was all we needed for now.

When we listened to the weather report this evening, we were pleased to hear that the wind was going to blow 10-15 knots tomorrow morning. This was our chance to head south, and we didn’t want to miss it.
