first appearence of Hawaiian petrel

first appearence of Hawaiian petrel

Today we started off the day with a dream, that all things could come together - good weather, warm water, getting off the shelf, and tuna - and that something surprising might show up in this confluence of parameters. Often all seems lined up, and things don't pan out, this time they did! ... Then we hit luck catching an Albacore tuna which of course was quite exciting. But then Matthew Dodder spotted the bird of the day - HAWAIIAN PETREL! We had good views behind the boat, before the
bird flew closer and beside the boat. In view of 90 seconds.
