Observation details

Approx 150 dark shearwaters near fishing vessel over Clayoquot Canyon. Most of these appeared to be STSH. Estimated as 60 STSH, 40 SOSH, and 50 STSH/SOSH to account for some uncertainty in estimated proportions. Smaller, rounder head/steeper forehead than SOSH, with more erratic fluttery flight.
