Field Notes

Habitat:

widespread seabird of tropical waters

Notes:

On a full day at sea of our cruise, this bird appeared off of our balcony it kept pace with the ship, circling it at times and fishing perhaps for flying fish being disturbed by the ship's passing. No the best quality photos due to zoom and movement.
