Hi All,
Yesterday’s Waved Albatross was found at the southwest corner of Cordell Bank Marin just before 1:00 PM snd observed for over 45 minutes. It came to a comfortable distance from the New Sea Angler and interacted with other species, including skua and many Sabine’s Gulls. It was photographed with fleshy food, perhaps squid, which it may have picked from the surface. It flew around the boat a few times, later returning to roost on the water near the boat. Earlier a few participants had a first county Least Storm-petrel in Sonoma County waters.There are no more RROS pelagics scheduled for this year. Logan Kahle is getting up a chase trip to Cordell Bank for tomorrow, Oct 7, which may be full by now.
