Media notes
Two individuals are sitting approx. 2 ft. apart in the nest area. At approx. :02, one of the birds jumps onto a rock above the second bird and begins vocalizing. 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 birds on the nest site.
