Observation details
***mega; adult present for its third day; hundreds of photos; this bird walked from the Race Point lot to about 1 mile west, picking at the surf line along the way and stopping at the large dead Monkfish for about 15 minutes. It would regulaly walk within 5 ft of photographers, with only mild concern. Eventually it started making short flights (due to lower tide and less successful foraging?) and finally flew off towards Herring Cove. We saw it fly back east about 30 minutes later.
