Subject: [MDBirding] Wind direction and tides


I'm planning on birding Ocean City Inlet on either this Fri. or Sat. One of my targets is Wilson's Storm Petrel. Thinking that east winds would be a better chance, but would rather go Fri., because of crowds. Researching the winds, it looks like SW tomorrow and turning more easterly on Sat. Do the winds, and/or tides, affect the Petrel's coming in closer to shore? Would appreciate any ideas! Thanks!
