The ELI crew is back in town, safe and sound, after an awesome season! It went by fast and we are already looking forward to next year. Thank you to everyone who supported and followed us during 2016. This is the final Limestone Log for now, but we will be back at it next year. Have a wonderful fall everyone and keep an eye out for your favourite seabirds!
What has been happening on East Limestone Island?
The past 2 weeks have been a busy time at the East Limestone Island field camp! We have now wrapped up all Ancient Murrelet monitoring for the year, and we are continuing with wildlife trees and Cassin’s Auklet nestbox monitoring. We are also getting going on some new projects, including invasive plant surveys, and beach debris cleanup.

My Week with Laskeek!
This most recent blog post is from one of our dedicated volunteers, Sari Raber. She was with our team on East Limestone Island from May 27 - June 3. Here is her creative representation of her time spent with Laskeek Bay Conservation Society!
Meanwhile, on ELI...
With the tasks of camp setup behind us, weeks three and four of the LBCS 2016 field season have seen the continuation of many core projects, as well as the arrival of new visitors to the camp on East Limestone Island (ELI). Monitoring for chicks in Cassin’s Auklet burrows has begun and the season’s first sea surveys have taken place. In addition, the end of the school year marks the beginning of the schools from around Haida Gwaii making their year-end trips to visit ELI and to assist with the Ancient Murrelet monitoring. Here are some project highlights from the past two weeks.
