[Maine-birds] tropicbird quest

Inspired by all the great sightings last weekend, we decided to try for this bird as soon as possible. We have engaged Captain John Drury to take us out to the Seal Island area to look for it this Thursday afternoon, July 30. We will be leaving from Vinalhaven at 2:00 pm.

There is room for additional passengers, if anyone is interested and able to come on this short notice. The boat can hold six people. 

Because our return will be after the last ferry of the afternoon, we will be staying on the island overnight, and anyone who joins us would need to find accommodations and do the same, though apparently there is an option to fly back to the mainland.

The cost of the boat trip, to be shared by all passengers, is $90 per hour. Capt. Drury says the trip will take four to five hours. 

Capt. Drury is a highly experienced seabird guide. Here is his website:  http://www.maineseabirdtours.com

Please e-mail us directly, call, or text if you are interested in joining us.

thanks, Leslie Starr & Joe Turner
