Mild seas, but a bit of early drizzle, met birders on The Bird Guide, Inc.'s final trip of the year.
Highlights included two LAYSAN ALBATROSSES and over 130 BLACK-FOOTED ALBATROSSES--always a crowd-pleaser!
A kaleidoscope of NORTHERN FULMAR plumages was present among over 600 birds, including several light phase birds.
A couple NORTHERN FUR SEALS presented their classic "jug handle" pose--holding their extremely long hind flippers in their front paws, and looking something like a flower watering jug.
Full trip report is here, including Wayne Hoffman's diving BLUE WHALE photo.

Plan your next trip to see Oregon seabirds.
Looks like you had some great birds on the trip !
