Original Purpose: To protect large colonies of breeding seabirds and their habitat. It is closed to the public to protect nesting birds and their habitat. A permit is needed to land on the island. It is accessible by boat, but landing is difficult. The island is named after Dr. Daniel Charles Solander, a Swedish botanist
Beresford Island Ecological Reserve is closed to the public to protect the nesting birds and their habitat. Primary Role The primary role of Beresford Island Ecological Reserve is to protect internationally important nesting sites and terrestrial habitat for breeding birds, many of which are rare and endangered. Together with Triangle Island Ecological Reserve and Sartine
Primary Role The primary role of Sartine Island Ecological Reserve is to protect internationally important nesting sites and terrestrial habitat for breeding birds, many of which are rare and endangered. Together with Triangle Island Ecological Reserve and Beresford Island Ecological Reserve, it represents the single most important seabird area in Pacific Canada. This highly productive

Trudy Carson provided a description of the islands and the bird species. A species list of macrophytes, and Randy Baker has provided a report on annelids. The uniqueness of this reserve and why it was an IBP Area, is that they are a small group of islets with different habitats ( landform and vegetation) features
Original Purpose: To protect colonies of nesting seabirds and their habitat Physical: A small, rocky island, roughly oval in shape, which rises steeply from deep water to a rounded top. The shore is rock and the upper slopes tend to have less soil cover than Triangle and Sartine islands. A number of rocks and reefs
Original Purpose: To protect colonies of breeding seabirds and their habitat Physical: This is a rugged, elongate island which rises steeply from the sea to a series of pinnacles and humps. The shoreline is rock, rising directly from the water, except for a narrow boulder beach along the northeastern shore. Though steep, most of the
Trudy Carson ( now Trudy Chatwin) made field notes on rocky crevice and shore plants, seepage rock crevice Plants , higher level rock crevices( 20 ft) and interior forested areas. Cassin ‘s auklet burrows were observed. Two burrows were investigated and two young were pulled, one was considerably larger than the other.
This seabird Census was done by Wayne Campbell in 1975/1976
Bristol Foster, Trudy Carson and Martin Lee visited the Kerouard Isalnds and made this report for the BC Provincial Museum, in 1977. ” These islands are the southern most islands on the Queen Charlotte Islands, ( Gwaii Haanas) located south off Kunghit Island and South of St. James Island.”. In these hand-written notes they indicate
Provincial Museum and UBC field parties conducted bird and mammal investigations in Barkley Sound from 1954 to 1970 inclusive. 55 of approx. 55 islands,islets and reefs were visited. Nesting sites of 6 species of sea birds previously unrecorded are lsited. See the complete paper –PDF file: barkley_sound_sea_bird_nesting_sites
