Pelagics
Seabirding is a relatively new interest for me. Some inspiring days on the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans in 2007 have finally motivated me to dedicate a chapter of the Keenbirding website to this exciting group of birds. Most of the images have been taken using the 'digibin' technique and the quality of the shots is not especially high.....but it's also been a lot of fun and a good way of taking record shots at sea of species that might otherwise go undocumented.
I'll be adding more to this page over the forthcoming weeks.
