Hello all,
We are currently 160 miles off the Baja peninsula and 330 miles from Isla Socorro. We are at the same latitude as the tropic of Cancer and will be in the tropics shortly. The weather is awesome with light winds, calm seas, warm air and the sea temperature is 77 degrees.
We have seen a couple of Masked boobies, a Brown booby, Frigatebirds and plenty of Leach’s storm-petrels associated with our fish oil slick this morning. We are currently travelling after stopping for 2 hours to disperse the fish oil slick. Our plan is to stop again late this afternoon for a couple of hours for more viewing opportunities as we add another slick.Here is a photo of our guests who are enjoying the addition of the shade canopy to the seating area on the stern.
More later,
Team Searcher
