White Tern
Southport Pelagic
One White Tern on yesterday's interesting pelagic. Unfortunately, keeping some distance. Also lots of Tahiti Petrels, Great-winged Petrels and a few early Providence Petrels in nice fresh plumage. A few very accommodating Pomarine Jaegers put on a show for the photographers on board.
