Saturday 25 May 2024 - Spring Blitz Day 4

Wow! Another day another Desertas (Fea's) Petrel! How incredible is that?! And at just about the same time as our encounter yesterday...and this bird stuck around a little longer and came much closer to the boat. What luck that we had a group with us today from East West Birding Tours (click for their website!) who all got to see this incredible gadfly petrel 💙

Check out the trip report with some images here:


We also had some excellent encounters with Short-finned Pilot Whales - at least 65 individuals! Here are a few images from the day:
