PhD candidate studying pre-breeding behavior in Leach's storm-petrels. Mediocre birder. I also like cool pens.
Another #superseabirdsunday and now it's almost the end of the field season... This is a juvenile captured in a burrow who will probably fledge in the next couple of days.

Happy national puffin day to the best alcid, the razorbill (it's been a great week already for terrorizing everyone with my binocular photography)
