For the record

I had kind of an "off" day for bird photographs during the pelagic boat trip to Bodega Canyon and Cordell Bank on 6 October 2019.  I was often in the wrong place for photos, or the birds were at odd angles or just out of focus.  But for the record, here are some shots that were interesting for various reasons:

Brown Booby (Sula leucogaster), a rarity in Sonoma County:



Flyby Laysan Albatross (Phoebastria immutabilis):



Flesh-footed Shearwater (Ardenna carneipes), an uncommon visitor from Australia or New Zealand:



A "ballet" of Buller's Shearwaters (Ardenna bulleri):



A Pomarine Jaeger (Stercorarius pomarinus) and the moon:
