Survey Leader's Comments

The most interesting thing we almost didn't see on this adventure
was Carp Creek. Just south of the "Yacht Club" there were a
couple of seagulls which were very interested in something on the
rocky beach. When I looked a little closer, I could see that the
rocks were wet, and there even seemed to be a little water oozing
out of the space between the rocks. When I dug a little, more
water came out. Eventually, I could see that the wet spot was
actually the exit of a very large square concrete pipe, which
was completely covered by the beach rocks. Most of the creek was
actually flowing through the rocks, and only a little was making
its way to the surface, only to quickly flow back down into
the surrounding rocks and to the sea unnoticed. A very difficult
migration path.
