Phil Pickering and I did a four-hour sea watch at Boiler Bay this morning.
Strong southerly winds turned slightly more southwesterly after the first hour
or so.
Highlights included:
Black-footed Albatross --3
Pink-footed Shearwater -- 600 (conservative)
Sooty Shearwater -- 200
N. Fulmar -- 1
Ancient Murrelet -- 2
Marbled Murrelet -- 16
Rhinoceros Auklet -- 8
Cassin's Auklet -- 3
Pomarine Jaeger -- 1 or 2
Parasitic Jaeger -- 1
All morning modest numbers of Pacific Loons, Brown Pelicans, Heermann's Gulls,
California Guls and Mew Gulls streamed by. We had 41 species in all.
After lunch I will turn my attentions to land birding.
