Observation details
George Divoky via Birds of Alaska (Facebook): "Billy Adams, Utqiagvik resident and part of Alaska Arctic Observatory and Knowledge Hub got this image of an immature Mandt's Black Guillemot off of Point Barrow last week. The subspecies is one of the few ice-obligate Arctic seabirds. This had to be one of the furthest north birds in Alaska last week. Most follow the Marginal Ice Zone south into the Bering with a few staying in the chronic lead system off Utqiagvik during the winter." Observer: Billy Adams
