Hello Tweeters,



Today, on the 5:15pm Port Townsend/Keystone Ferry, about mid-channel, I
observed a murrelet about 25 yards off the north side of the ferry. This
bird had an unmarked black back with an obvious clean white chin and ventral
neck. This was the one and only time I was topside on that ferry without my
binoculars so couldn't get any further field marks.
