Friday was a good day. 4 of us were fortunate enough to pick the right day for a boat ride with the famous John Drury. The conditions were perfect and the birds cooperated.
The Red-billed Tropicbird was fantastic. I have found most rarity chases to be let downs. This one was different as the bird put on a show that had us all smiles and my uncle comparing the bird to a streaker.
We had an excellent study in tern identification, with great looks at Common, Arctic and Roseate.
Plentiful Atlantic Puffin and Razorbill were great.
We had close-up looks at 3 Common Murre as well as 3 Manx Shearwater.
Multiple nesting Great Cormorants were a surprise to me.
A big thanks to John who does it right,
