Monterey pelagic day.

| Pigeon Guillemot |
Another close to shore search for Murrelets, failed again, but at least turned up Pigeon Guillemots (3). Similar day as before, sea mist, and dull! Quite a few Sooty Shearwaters again, and a few Rhinoceros Auklets. Again Pink-footed Shearwaters were quite common, and showed well. Also a fairly good number of Black-footed Albatrosses were seen. At least 3 Pomarine Skuas showed well too.

Other than the birds, the cetaceans took centre stage. We had Humpback & Blue Whales, California Sea-lion, Rissos & Pacific White-sided Dolphins too.
But…..still no chumming….why?
