Overview

Notes

• The channel of water flowing out to sea has narrowed since the data collected on Monday August 25.
• Clumps of seaweed were seen in the channel that has been excavated.  This indicates that sea water is pushing up into the lower part of the estuary at high tide.
• Strong winds were blowing sand across the berm while this data sheet was being completed.
• pacific and kelp gulls were seen feeding on dead fish at the river mouth. 
• a lot of the dead fish seem to have been removed by birds.  There was a small bodied fish that looked to have recently died.  It was identified as a Bridled Goby.   This is the first time during the acid flush event that this species has been found dead at the river mouth.
