For those hesitating ... MD pelagic records between October 10 and November
10.  Locations are FB (fishing boat), OCP (Ocean City pelagic), and AOCEAN
(Atlantic Ocean).

Subject: [MDOSPREY] 10/23 Lewes, DE Pelagic Still Has Space

The pace of signups has been quickening, but there is still room on the
10/23
pelagic out of Lewes, DE.  This is a good time of year to search for
Northern
Fulmar, Greater & Manx Shearwater, jaegers, Red Phalarope, and more.

Our target destination will be the commercial fishing boats and underwater
features near the 30 fathom line.  If we find a good concentration of terns
and
gulls with attendant jaegers, we'll plan on spending some time doing jaeger
study.  We expect to spend time in both MD and DE waters, depending upon
where
we find birds and marine life.  Here are the details.

    Time:  6:00 AM - about 5:00 PM
    Cost:  $100
    Boat:  85' Thelma Dale IV
    Leave: Fishermen's Wharf, Lewes, DE

For further information, E-mail us at , call us, or see
our
web site (which has had the information for this trip corrected).

Hope to see you aboard!
