Re: [Maine-birds] Re: Bar Harbor Whale trip Bird ID?

Sorry about my Flickr post not being public. I made it so here:


As I previously wrote, this photo is by Cindy Marple and it is on the photos tab in the iphone/ipad app, iBird Pro under Sooty Shearwater. I invite anyone to take a look and determine if it is incorrectly identified. If is is, I will notify the company to have them correct the ID of the image. Thanks!

I couldn't look at your Flickr photo since it is private but the SOSH seems to have very different wings? I googled Skuas and my bird looks closer to a South Polar Skua?

thanks

I recently saw this bird on a Bar Harbor whale trip and would appreciate help in IDing it. I'm assuming a Jaeger or a Skua? I saw 4 Pomarine Jaeger on the trip but the tails were very different. I would appreciate any assistance.

The pictures are a little blurry:
