Great trip- I'm really looking forward to heading out again.

I'm still trying to get the hang of my camera settings (most turned out
woefully underexposed or soft), but I've posted a few pictures at the link
below. 

Good birding,

To follow-up on JB's and Paul's posts on the pelagic trip on Saturday, below
are links to my photos - none too great, though I have included some gannet
action shots, even though they don't meet my rare birds critieria...

Also, two pictures of the Common Eiders from the Inlet on Sunday at

After looking at these, I think it likely the whiter male is a second winter
bird, not quite a full adult, but too much black on the head and wing
coverts to be a full adult.


I would highly recommend a winter pelagic trip to all!
