Dear Members and Bird Watchers!
I am 700 km south west of Arqupelago Dos Acores and about 400 km east of the Mid Atlantic Ridge.
And the only bird I see today is a bird hunting in front of my boat for a while and then the bird takes a lap of honour around the boat before it disappears.
I manage to get some pictures with my small pocket camera and I ID the bird as a young Northern Gannet.
I get internet from a satellite and it is sucking balls. Very slow but I looked for juvenile pictures of the gannet and I discover that my bird is more like a Masked Booby because of the head and the wing pattern.
Was I wrong to change the ID to Masked Booby?
Kind Regards and Happy Birding
