The penultimate session for me - an 8.00am start with a shower to welcome us!
A half empty boat!! What's going on! We steamed 5 miles south, before drifting and chumming.....
The winds had dropped significantly but there was a decent swell and we were into quality birds - here's yet another Cory's Shearwater!
Not always easy to get the upperwing shot!
Great Shearwater yet again.....
And this time, close to the boat!
Make that VERY close :-)
Wayne will not be best pleased to know we had yet another 1st Summer Long-tailed Skua!
Just flew alongside the boat, had a look and then carried straight on!
There's always a good Gull presence on the run in and we were joined by this adult Yellow-legged Gull for much of it!
I've saved the Storm Petrels for a separate post - they showed well today!
