SoCal pelagic birds

This is, of course, not about Utah birds but may still be of interest to
some Utah birders. The following appeared on yesterday's southern
California birding listserv:

Hi, All.

Sorry for the major cross posting.

Todd McGrath and Jon Feenstra have created the ultimate resource for
anyone
who has ever considered a pelagic birding trip off Southern California.
Their two-part article "Pelagic Birding in the Southern California
Bight"
has appeared in the May/June and September/October issues of the
"Western
Tanager," the newsletter of the Los Angeles Audubon Society. PDFs can be

downloaded at

http://www.laaudubon.org/index.php?option=displaypage&Itemid=168&op=page&Su

The articles contain a detailed account for each of the 53 pelagic bird
species documented in the Southern California Bight, as well as bar
graphs.
It also offers a detailed introduction, maps, references, and lists the
three major trip providers in the area, LAAS, Searcher Natural History
Tours
and Condor Cruises.
