See Life Paulagics has a pelagic trip scheduled for Saturday, December
13 out of Lewes, DE. The boat is the 85' Thelma Dale IV, a fast,
comfortable boat with a full walk-around, birdable upper deck, heated
cabin with benches, and separate men's and women's heads.
We plan on birding in Delaware and Maryland pelagic waters up to 40-60
miles offshore. Target species include alcids, Fulmar, Greater and
Manx Shearwater,
Kittiwake, Red Phalarope, Gannets, and other winter seabirds. Trips
at this time of year have produced Razorbills, Atlantic Puffin,
Dovekie, Common Murre, and (rarely) Thick-billed Murre. This is also
a good time for cetaceans such as Common Dolphin, Fin Whale, and
sometimes Atlantic White-sided Dolphin.
Of note is that a Thick-billed Murre has already been seen off of Cape
May, NJ this year. Is it a loner or are alcids already moving? We
intend to find out.
The trip is scheduled to run from 6:00 AM to about 6:00 PM. The cost is $165.
Contact us by e-mail or phone if you are interested.
Hope to see you aboard!
