They were dive bombing a week or so back off the beach by me, maybe 20-30ft of water. Such cool birds.

[@Bsprecksfishing]

Yes, there’s definitely bait out there!

[@Bsprecksfishing]

Thanks for watching!

[@nanvolentine9110]

Beautiful!

[@Bsprecksfishing]

Thanks for watching!

[@scottschlemmer4787]

I knew the species but not what they looked like until now.

[@Bsprecksfishing]

Oh yeah, they have colonies up in Canada during their breeding time, which is the only time they touch the land.. by the millions

[@Glaciershark]

They are scouting or just cruising I guess

[@Bsprecksfishing]

They’re definitely feeding, but in the shallows

[@Bsprecksfishing]

Thanks for watching

Can't hear you over the high wind.

[@Bsprecksfishing]

Yeah that camera’s microphone isn’t great
