Observation details
Pair of birds seen together just 1/2 mile west of buoy. These birds were initially thought to be Craveri's Murrelets but analysis of photos taken of these birds and further research proved otherwise.The birds had short bills, the black lores did not continue down to the bottom gape of the bill, and one bird showed a small indentation of white coming into the dark face in front of the eye which Craveri's would never show. Views of the underwing were inconclusive.
