Sea Birds from the ship

During the whale watching, I watched birds of of course.


A Rhinoceros Auklet was very close to the ship flying away from our ship.

We also saw Several Fulmars, but most people neglected this bird species.


The others seabirds we saw were gulls, such as Black-tailed Gull and Slaty-backed Gull.


Althouh I wanted to see sheawaters, albatrosses, and skuas, foggy condition prevented us from going further out to the sea.
