Lifer!! Continuing bird
Confirmed with song
Noticeably smaller than the nearby Black Storm-Petrel, more direct flight
Caught, fought, and then hung for several minutes with its head above water, then apparently cut loose by the anglers in this boat. Pretty shameful behavior and likely the death of the shark. Sickening.
Heard repeatedly from sedge meadow at S end of trail. First sang at 8:38 PM. Distinctive ticking; alternating sets of twos and threes “tic-tic, tic-tic-tic, tic-tic, tic-tic-tic”. Recording attached!
