The water was nice the sun was nice and we saw many beautiful birds. We started off with Puffins and seeing the Horned Puffin was a highlight of the day.

We also saw Pigeon Guillemot, Rhinoceros Auklet, Black Oystercatchers, Canada Geese, three different species of Cormorant, Harlequin Ducks, and more. Tons of pics in this post, I overdid it I think.
