Birds -- Half Moon Bay pelagic, August 19, 2012

Photos from a pelagic trip led by Alvaro Jaramillo out of Half Moon Bay to the Farallon Islands and the deep ocean south of there. Overcast skies for the whole trip cut down on the number of good photos, but we had excellent views of Tufted Puffins at the south Farallon islands, and visits from up to twenty Black-footed Albatrosses at a time in the deep ocean area.
