A beautiful adult BROWN BOOBY was spotted by ace chummer, Wes Fritz, flying into the wake of our boat on Shearwater Journeys' Monterey Bay pelagic trip, today, September 9, 2011. This booby flew in briefly, landed on the water and then took off. It was a stunning show! We were in Santa Cruz County. Please enjoy professional Rick Fournier's images, below.

Long-time fellow traveler, Ann Dewart spotted a FLESH-FOOTED SHEARWATER, also in Santa Cruz County, sitting amongst a flock of PINK-FOOTED and SOOTY SHEARWATERS. We saw all of the usual suspects. A full report might come later. Spaces are still available on many of our trips. Please see our schedule on the Shearwater Journeys' web site.
