Good morning all,
This morning we have arrived at “Albatross Alley” with multiple sightings of both laysan and black-footed albatrosses. We have seen at least 12 black-footed and eight laysan. We are currently about 15 miles northwest of Islas San Benito where there is a seamount called Ranger Bank. We have seen fulmars, pink-footed shearwaters and phalaropes as well.
Also based on yesterday’s sightings, it is apparent that the baleen whales are starting to arrive in the area close to San Diego. That bodes well for our shorter trips this spring. Check out the website for our Memorial Day Wildlife Weekend trip. Don’t miss a chance to see a blue whale in our back yard.
More later,
