On May 2, 2022, 12:02pm, while aboard the eastbound Port Townsend Ferry I observed a Cassin's Auklet in a large feeding flock of gulls, cormorants, Rhinoceros Auklets and Pigeon Guillemots. The bird was murrelet size, uniform grey with a pale eye and white supraorbital spot.
On the ferry back to Whidbey, 5:35pm, I observed a Tufted Puffin and a very early Heermann's Gull with another feeding flock in a tide rip about a half mile offshore from the Coupeville ferry landing.
