The 8hr inshore pelagic aboard the American Princess out of Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn set sail Saturday with a sold out boat. A party from the New York State Young Birders Club was with us which made the trip even more fun. Participants were almost immediately rewarded with Queens County’s first Pacific Loon located just offshore of Breezy Point. Other highlights included Razorbill, Common Murre, Black-legged Kittiwake, Laughing Gull, Lesser Black-backed Gull and an incredible Northern gannet show. Cetaceans included Fin Whale, Humpback Whale and Common Dolphin. A preliminary trip report can be viewed at the link below. Additional images will be added as lists are shared in the coming days.
