Subject: [MASSBIRD] Hatches Harbor to Race Pt. , Provincetown
Hello,
After reading reports of good seabird activity out at Race Point we hiked out via fire road to the lighthouse and point! Lots of activity with closeup view of a single Cory’s Shearwater. Having short experience with this species I was unable to identify it as ‘Scopoli’s subspecies, found and photographed by Peter Food the previous day. Great day at the Race! Note from previous day at Race Pt. Parking lot access. 8 Harlequin Ducks made a vanguard appearance just offshore!
