Observation details
Small group of 3 tiny alcids with very petite bills. Photos. All birds reported from 6:25 AM-8:00 PM Sunday the 12th, were recorded on a 25 hour fishing charter in the canyons, offshore Long Island. I ran my checklists from the times stated above. Counts may be low and birds may have been missed due to my eyes being the only ones birding on the boat. All species of interest have been photographed to confirm ids without any doubts. Range for this pelagic trip was about 60-80 miles offshore. Choice of selecting between pelagic protocol and incidental checklists will be determined by if I was holding my camera birding, or if I was fishing while passively scanning at the given hour. Hourly checklists done regardless .
