Stellwagen 7/30

A couple of folks from the Brookline Bird Club joined me on a Boston Harbor Cruises boat out of Boston yesterday - with nice views of the expected shearwaters.  We only had one Manx Shearwater, a relatively quick look, but the other bird were reasonably cooperative.  The jaeger was a medium-small jaeger, I would guess Parasitic, but didn't get any pictures.  Nice way to beat the heat in the city.

4-6 Humpback whales and 2-3 Minke whales were seen as well.
