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.

Pelagic working voyages interspersed with local patch and occasional twitch birding news. Thursday, 4 June 2015.

http://pelagicbirder.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Pelagic working voyages interspersed with local patch and occasional twitch birding news. Sunday, 31 May 2015. Courting couples and sad singles. Displaying and holding territory. Similarly, a single pair of winchats. Are now also on territory. In consideration of the expansive and suitable habit for these species, only a single pair of each causes me some concern and I wonder how long it will be before these species become locally extinct?
