PELAGIC BIRDER: Masked maurauder
http://pelagicbirder.blogspot.com/2015/08/masked-maurauder.html
Pelagic working voyages interspersed with local patch and occasional twitch birding news. Thursday, 13 August 2015. The skies around the ship have been largely empty although a very showy Masked booby. Put on a show as it chased the flying fish. A day later one of its' cousins showed up in the form of a Brown booby. Again feasting on the flying fish but on this occasion keeping a greater distance from my vantage point. Flying fish- seemingly on every menu! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). We are OFFh 2.

Simon Thurgood Images: Out and About in the Scottish Islands
http://simonthurgoodimages.co.uk/outandabout/scottishislands.asp
Insects-Bees, Wasps and Ants. East Riding of Yorkshire. Out and About - Scottish Islands. This spectacular island just off the Sutherland coast is one of the largest seabird colonies in north-west Europe. The place is supposed to come alive each summer as some 100,000 seabirds gather here to breed, including guillemots, razorbills, kittiwakes and small numbers of puffins on the cliffs. But when I visited in 2013 numbers were down by a large amount. Iona is about 1 mile from the coast of Mull. Visitor...

Pelagic working voyages interspersed with local patch and occasional twitch birding news. Thursday, 4 June 2015. Just back from a few days on the Isle of Lewis where the theme of westerly gales and tough birding continued. I only managed a trip species list of 63 over three and a half days birding- including a number of seabirds seen from the two Minch crossings.
