    Vol. 15, No. 9 May, 1959 Heerman Gulls Published by the VICTORIA NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY Victoria, B.C. 105 THE V ICTORIA NATURAL I ST Published by THE VICTORIA NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY Vol.15, No.9 MAY 1959 OUR COVER The gulls of Victoria are an essential part of the life of our City, but to most of us they are just 'sea-gulls Actually at least ten species visit Victoria, the only resi• dent ones being the glaucous-winged; others come in their season, some to winter here, others to visit. They present an interesting study, and often a perplexing challenge to bird students; some of the species being so like others,and the plumages of the same species varying so much, that iden• tification can be difficult. The Heerman gull, pictured on the cover, is one little known to most people, but it is a regular visitor, each year arriving in good numbers between July 1st and 10th, and re• maining until the Autumn. It is a medium sized species, length about 20 inches (the glaucous-winged being twenty-six inches), with a very dark back, and startlingly white head and neck in the adults. It can be readily separated from all others by its red bill and black feet. The nesting grounds of the Heerman gull are in the Gulf of California and elsewhere on the west coast of Mexico It migrates as far north as Victoria and as far south as Guatemala. Around Victoria it will generally be found on the kelp beds which surround our coast.

    Exploring British Columbia’s Salish Sea Text by Barb Roy Thetis Island Photos by Barb Roy, Andy Lamb and Gunild Symes Tallen, my youngest daugh- ter and part-time dive buddy entered the cool emerald coloured water with me as the current slowed to a stop to change direction (slack). Full of anticipation, Tallen and I descended down the south- west side of Virago Rock within Porlier Pass, a .65 km (.4 mile) wide channel between the islands of Valdez and Galiano. We swam past rockfish rest- ing on overlapping fronds of kelp and through a dense thicket of bull kelp with tall spindly strands hoisting sacks of air high above with ribbon- like leaves flowing gently in a slight current. The rocky reef below wore a blanket of light pink coralline algae, dotted with tiny white and orange anemones. Before long the area opened up, revealing our prize—the wreckage of the 32-meter (105-foot) steamer tug, Point Grey, built in 1911. Looking up at the massive pro- peller, I marveled at its photo- genic, yet mystic appearance.

  • July,1972 'I: N,O,B, NEWS
    DEPT. OF THE ENVIRONMENT FISHERIES SERVICE JUL25 1972 PACIFIC REGIONAL LlBRJuly,1972 'I: N,O,B, NEWS YUKON-TERRITORY- EGG AND FRY PLANTING Trout planting in the Yukon Territory was first carried out by the Whitehorse Fish and Game Association in the late 1940's. The purpose of planting was to provide angling for a preferred species easily accessible to Whitehorse residents. The Federal Department of Fisheries accepted responsibility for Yukon trout planting in 1958, and has been responsible for plan- ting 1.583 million Rainbow Trout eggs and 40,000 Rainbow Trout fry up to 1971. As in the past, the object of the program was to provide angling near to population centres. The first attempts utilized various techniques of incubating eyed eggs. Incubation trays and simulated gravel redds proved un- ! successful but streamside and upwelling incubation boxes showed signs of promise if an adequate water supply was used. In 1970, in an attempt to improve on planting success, 30,000 two- to two-and-one- half-inch Rainbow Trout were purchased from Steelhead Creek Trout Co. in Mission, B.C., and trucked 1,700 miles to the Yukon. Overall sur- vival was 88%, much higher than experienced before. Growth rate was checked in one of these lakes some 54 weeks after planting and the stock had increased from 2 - 2% inches to 13 - 14 inches and from approximately .08 Ounce to 23.9 ounces. The largest Rainbow Trout caught from stocked lakes was 20 pounds in Long Lake near Whitehorse. In 1972, emphasis shifted from trout planting for angling pur- poses to commercial pothole farming, Encouraged by the results of prairie pothole farming, it was felt that our lakes had tremendous potential for producing a highly marketable fish.

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF JOHN ALDEN PACKARD, JR.for the Master of Science (Name) (Degree) in Geology presented on MI3 /97). (Major) (Orate) Title: PALEOENVIRONMENTS OF THECRETACEOUS ROCKS, GABRIOLA ISLAND, BRITISH COLUMBIA Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Oles Late Cretaceous sedimentary marine and deltaicrocks of Gabriola Island were mapped and studied duringthe summer of 1971. Cretaceous strata constitute all the exposed outcrops onthe island, which is the northernmost of the Gulf Islandchain of British Columbia. The upper four formations of the Nanaimo Group arerecognized, totalling 2707 feet in composite section,The thinly laminated marine mudstones and siltstones of the Northumberlandand Spray Formations are separated by deltaicsandstones and conglomerates of the Geoffrey Sandstone.The younger Gabriola Sandstone lacks theconglomerate units.Although unconformities between the formations mayexist on a regional basis, locally themajor contacts are sharp and planar. The marine strata are characterized by fine-grained,thinly laminated beds, and an abundant ammonite fauna,indicative of a low energy, open marine environment.The deltaic units are medium- to coarse-grained arkosic wackes andpebble-cobble conglomerates representing a nearby source, and a high energy,nearshore environ- ment in which little sediment reworkingoccurred and burial was rapid. The minerals and lithic clasts of the deltaic unitsexhibit prac- tically no variation throughout the sections.Source areas are con- sidered to be the older formations on VancouverIsland. Channel axis measurements of festoon troughcross-bedding, plus orientation of sole marks and partinglineations, indicate a pre- dominant northwest current transport direction forthe upper two formations.Soft-sediment slumping and flame structures support the probability of a northerly to northwesterly decliningpaleoslope.
