  1. California sea lions very relaxed, some sleeping even, in the sea where herring has just spawned.

    California sea lions have a darker coat than Steller sea lions and they also have a bump on their forehead.

  7. If you are in the Qualicum Beach area, a large spawn has started there yesterday. You'll see plenty of fishing boats at sea too.

  13. Back home from scouting. Lots of Steller sea lions and gulls catching herring. Lots of bald eagles. Saw 3 humpback whales in the distance. Had a close encounter with a river otter.
    I expect wildlife activity is going to increase in the next few days and into next week once the herring start to spawn.

  19. Gull are opportunistic eaters. This gull spotted a Steller sea lion emerging from the sea with a tasty herring in its mouth. The sea lion immediately went back in the sea with its precious meal.
    Gull: 0 Seal - Lion: 1

  23. March 2019: The herring have just released their milt in eel grass in shallow waters on the coast of Vancouver Island. The sea has turned a milky turquoise colour. Gulls are frantically picking up herrings washing ashore.
