Murrelet






there are some once in a life time birds which you just have to make the effort to see as they have made such an effort to get here----after some long forced marches this Long-billed Murrelet eventually gave itself up feeding close inshore off the station but the light was a bit tricky--what a bird though--at one stage it jumped completely clear of the water chasing a fish and then caught a fish about 12cm long which it got down with remarkable ease
