We're still quite a bit short to get this trip out and hope some more of you folks are interested. Last year we had a great trip at this time getting Fulmars, Manx & Great Shearwaters, Red Phalarope, Kittiwake, Little Gull, Parasitic Jaeger, some early Razorbills, and the expected great Gannet show at the wake. For those of you who like to take photos, the Gannets swooping around the boat and diving into the chum can make for some great photo opportunities. Photos from last year's trip are on our Facebook page at:

Our real hope is to find Great Skua in our area again. This bird has become very difficult in the Mid-Atlantic since the foreign fishing fleets ransacked our ocean and left for more fertile fishing. Our hope is that they can be found heading south with the masses of gulls, Gannets, and baitfish that pass our coast at this time of year.
The trip cost is $175, and the boat sails at 6:00 AM returning at roughly 6:00 PM. We expect to spend time in both Delaware and Maryland waters. To make a reservation, go to our web site or you can contact us by phone or e-mail at <info...>
Hope to see you aboard.
