Avalon Seawatch - 22 Decmeber 2001
posted by Tom Magarian | 2:18 PM
The last day of the Seawatch was slow overall, but had some excitement. It all started at about 0740, when a Black guillemot flew down the channel at an unbelievably close range and kept going south pass the 8th street jetty. Then a little later in the morning, an adult male King Eider turned up in the Common Eider flock and was seen through the end of the day, often at very close range. Other noteworthy birds were a handful of Razorbills, three Red-necked Grebes, and a couple of Black-legged Kittiwake. Nothing like going out with a bang!
