All, Island Packers has a pelagic trip out to Santa Barbara Island on Aug 7. This will be a similar format to last year's trip where we bird the edge of the Santa Cruz Basin between Santa Cruz Island and Santa Barbara Island before stopping at the booby colony on Sutil Rock. Assuming reasonable sea conditions, we will likely be able to spend some time in the deepwater section of the basin W of Santa Barbara Island, where Townsend's and Leach's Storm-Petrels occur. We are likely to see Ashy and Black Storm-Petrels as well as well various other seabirds, including Craveri's Murrelets. There will be four leaders, including me on the boat. You can book the pelagic trip under birding trips on the Island Packers website or call them.
