[Maine-birds] Bar Harbor Pelagic - Cory's Shearwater

A single Cory's Shearwater was seen very well (within 50 yards of bow of boat) by a group of birders aboard

the Friendship V Saturday morning. The bird was spotted sitting on the water and then launching into flight

in the vicinity of the "Ballpark".  Good long look as it flew along starboard side. (Details in eBird report).

Other birds included: 5 Northern Fulmar, 60+ Wilson's Storm Petrels, 14 Great Shearwaters, and a

handful of Northern Gannet.  No whales were seen.
