Media notes
A single bird is flying in a clockwise pattern above and slightly west of the gorge leading to the bathroom area. The bird flies over a nesting area several times and looks as if it is attempting to land without doing so. The additional petrels can be heard as they fly through the gorge in a clockwise pattern. Throughout the recording, the microphone is directed towards the bird on the nest site.
