[Maine-birds] MDI Pelagic - 5 skuas

I'm sure Doug will provide a complete report when his cheeks are again pink. Unfortunately, the return was rough for many on board.

Highlights of the day include:

5 skuas, one clearly a Great and one clearly a S Polar, others more distant.
15+ Pomarine Jaegers for the day, a typical count.
plenty of Great Shearwaters, handful of Sooty's, 1 Manx.
Great views of Lech's Storm-Petrel.
Phalaropes notably sparse, <5.

Thanks to Brian (capt) and Zack Klyver (lead naturalist) for their excellent efforts.

Best,

Peter
