40+ razorbills south of Bogue Banks today



Greetings,

A beautiful calm day off Cape Lookout today. We counted more than 40 
razorbills south of Bogue Banks this morning, all between 8 and 13 nm 
offshore (in depths of 60-80 feet). Generally sitting on the water in 
groups of 2-4, most of them associated with small flocks of 
Bonaparte's gulls. Sea surface temperature was 9 degrees C.
