disturbance - sea Lion hauled out on a rock. Did not affect the nearby PGs ( - ) ()

survey.note - never saw more than 7 PGs. There were no burrow visits. Usually two pairs of PGs would circle in a RT hand pattrern sometimes with a Gunnel and sometimes drop down into the water. Then fly off again. Tide was way out (-1.4) so PGs were a good distance from the burrows most of the time..

Fog and low visibility was present from about 0800 to 0820. Should have been an ideal day for PG survey but birds never cooperated.
