There are 5 people signed up for the Weekend field trip to North Carolina on
the weekend of October 10-12 (come home on the 13th). I have set aside rooms
for 12 participants, so if you plan to go, we need to know ASAP. The pelagic
trip will not only find us birds, past trips have also turned up Bottlenose
and Atlantic Spotted Dolphins, Sperm Whale, Loggerhead Sea Turtles and
Portugese
Man-O-War. Most likely birds include Bridled and Sooty Terns, Cory's and
Audubon's Shearwaters, Wilson's Storm-Petrel, Pomarine and Parasitic Jaeger.
Other possibilities include Northeren Fulmar, Black-capped Petrel, Greater and
Manx Shearwaters, Leach's Storm-Petrel, Northern Gannet, Red and Red-necked
Phalaropes.. On rare occasion, others such as Bermuda Petrel, Trinidade Petrel,
White-tailed Tropicbird, Masked Booby and Sabine's Gull have been seen. On the
next posting, I will list the likely shore and land birds to be seen on or
around Cape Hatteras during October.
We will be staying at the Comfort Inn in Buxton. The rooms are
reserved under my name with senior discounts included ($84.96 with no senior in
the
room and 79.96 per room with a senior). This rate includes a complimentary
breakfast. The pelagic trip is about 11 hours long for $130. We will bring
food and drink with us.
If you wish to sign up, contact me by email or phone. I will give
you the address with which to send in the advance payment on the boat, and I
will save a room for you. Three rooms are already taken. My email is:
