观察细节

Disoriented, deck-stranded, ship-assisted bird. No idea at what point this bird was on the deck, it was first brought to our attention by some passengers. Prominent amount of white in front of the eye as well as behind the eye on the face, easily distinguishing this from the other murrelets. Successfully released on the back of the ship, where it flew very well over the ocean. Potentially a younger bird based on some molt limits in the wing. Many pics taken, pics will be added later.
