Comments on: South Polar Skua https://birdfinding.info/south-polar-skua/ Birds and Travel Tue, 01 Jun 2021 20:12:43 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Hatteras, North Carolina (Offshore Waters) – birdfinding.info https://birdfinding.info/south-polar-skua/#comment-756 Tue, 01 Jun 2021 20:12:43 +0000 https://www.birdfinding.info/?p=90753#comment-756 […] In eastern North America, the offshore waters of Cape Hatteras are unparalleled for access to pelagic bird diversity.  It is a short trip from port to the continental shelf edge, to an area that is especially productive because it is the mixing zone for warm Gulf Stream waters and the southernmost tongue of the cold Labrador Current.  Sixteen species of tubenoses occur regularly: four Pterodroma petrels (Black-capped, Trindade, Desertas a.k.a. Fea’s, and Bermuda); Northern Fulmar; six shearwaters; and five storm-petrels.  Other seabirds seen regularly include Catesby’s and Red-billed Tropicbirds, Bridled and Sooty Terns, all three jaegers, and Great and South Polar Skuas.
