August 25th 2007. BBC 'Extreme' Pelagic trip. Eighteen miles north of Veatch's Canyon, MA.
Macaronesian Shearwater. Puffinus baroli.
Three images appear courtesy of Scott Surner.
A staggering find for seabirders aboard the Helen H. on the third BBC Extreme pelagic trip of the season. Many thanks to Scott Surner of Belchertown for allowing me to share these images on the keenbirding website. Possibly the first live bird to be photographically documented in North America. What a fantastic record!!
