The sun was sinking behind the spruce woods as we returned to the boat for the 90-minute ride back to Mount Desert. I handed the petrel chick back to Gnam, who set it on the ground. She gave it a gentle nudge, and we watched it totter back into the darkness of its burrow.

Stormy Petrel II is a uniquely different kind of charter boat serving our North Carolina sportfishing Mecca off Cape Hatteras. Our 61' Kennebunk East Coast built boat is licensed to carry large groups (including your entire family and friends together on the same trip). That's good news because no one wants to be left behind! With our 360 degree walk-around deck there is always plenty of room so that everyone onboard can fish and enjoy their best charter trip rather then having to alternate turns to catch a fish (like on other sportfishing charter boats).
We are fully rigged and ready to offer anglers a deep sea offshore (Gulf Stream) charter as well as near shore/inshore charters. Most all other Cape Hatteras charter boats have one set rate for a charter trip. They are legally only licensed for 6 passengers. Because we can take more passengers we are the best very affordably priced option so that you can include the entire family! Even with large groups of anglers on Stormy Petrel II, once the minimum has been met, we can price our rates per person like a headboat instead of per charter trip.
With Stormy Petrel your entire family or group can enjoy the thrills and excitement of the best sportfishing that the Outer Banks has to offer. The next time you are going to be visiting the Outer Banks and you are looking for a safe, secure and highly productive charter boat for your family and friends please keep Stormy Petrel II in mind. You just can't go wrong chartering our family friendly and big group friendly boat.
Don't forget the young anglers! The best way to teach your next lifelong fishing buddy is to start them off the right way. Our big boat has plenty of room for large groups like school, church, corporate and especially families. We offer private half and full day charters that are barely more expensive than crowded headboat fishing but so much more comfortable and successful. $900 for one to ten people and $100 more for each person over ten when you have 11 or more (20 max).
Our cottage is about an hour from Petrel Point Fen. I feel very lucky to be able to experience it whenever I like. So many little gems to hunt for. I agree with Gayla that mid-June may be the best time to visit. We went once over Canada Day weekend and were lucky enough to see the illusive Pink Lady Slipper Orchid. Thanks for the lovely article on a wonderful spot!
At this time of year, our obsession with the daily weather forecast takes on greater importance, much to the amusement of family and friends! Every forecast is scrutinised for an opportunity to see something of interest, be it locally or nationally, or chasing a particular 'bogey species'. Leach's Storm-petrel falls into the latter category for many observers. With few opportunities to see this superb seabird from the mainland during the course of the year, it is very easy to miss out on the occasional autumn days when these birds do get blown close to the shore. The numbers seen are dependent upon the weather conditions during passage periods. There can be a significant movement on one day, then that's your 'lot' for the year. Timing, and appreciation of the required conditions, are essential to maximise your chances of success.
Globally, these small seabirds are not uncommon, with large numbers found in both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. A handful of Scottish and Irish breeding colonies contain a total of just under 50,000 pairs - a fraction of the estimated world population of around ten million pairs. Birds disperse from breeding areas between September and November, the best period to try and connect with this lovely bird. At other times of the year it is a decidedly difficult species to catch up with. In winter the majority of the population is located in waters to the south of Britain, though displacement can occur during the winter and sizeable numbers have, on occasion, been recorded during this season, but such events are rare.
Autumn offers the best opportunity when strong onshore winds may bring birds close inshore to famous Irish Sea watchpoints along the west coast of Britain, and also to renowned seawatching locations in both the Republic and Northern Ireland. Small numbers can be encountered in the North Sea at such times too, with Norfolk invariably taking the lion's share of sightings, but low-lying parts of the Yorkshire coast can also accommodate birds, as can other east-coast areas such as Kent and Suffolk. However, by far and away the easiest area to see these fantastic birds is observing those forced into the mouths of the Dee and Mersey estuaries in Northwest England.
To catch up with these birds, though, you're going to need to pay attention to the weather, you'll need to go seawatching and you'll need to prepare yourself for the frustration that this often thankless pursuit brings with it. The following offers a quick guide to where to go looking, though obviously any coastal location could well produce a sighting of the species. This guide concentrates only on those locations which give you a better chance of success (more details about how to see Leach's Storm-petrels at the better sites can be found by clicking on the site).
For birders unable to reach prime Irish seawatching locations, the most accessible birds are to be found in the Dee and Mersey estuaries following a west or northwesterly gale. Without doubt, this area offers birders the best opportunity for seeing Leach's in British waters, with sometimes several hundred seen on good days, often at close quarters; for example over 650 were noted passing Hilbre Island in Cheshire on 17th September 1978. Watch the weather charts for a west or northwesterly blow, preferably of several days' duration, and head to any of the following sites (check the tide times too, as high tide offers the closest views):
The key sites for observing birds in this area are the traditional famous seawatching locations. The best site is St. Ives Island, particularly during strong-to-gale-force west or northwesterly winds to push birds into the bay. Notable autumn counts include c. 400 passing St Ives Island on 24th September 1974.
Strong onshore winds in the autumn invariably produce birds along the north Norfolk coastline, the best site being Sheringham, where seawatchers have logged as many as 75 birds in day (though that count was quite exceptional for a North Sea watchpoint).
The best way to see everything the Galpagos has to offer while travelling in total luxury, Petrel is one of the most sought-after boats on galapatours.com and recommended for those who value quality and the finer things in life. Petrel really does set a new standard for luxury in Galpagos, and we love the amazing size of the suites on board. The staff are superb and they make all their guests feel very special. Rarely for the Galpagos, this is a family-owned boat.
The food on our Galapgos Cruises is among the very best you will find in South America. Most of the on-board chefs are internationally trained and have prior experience working in the best hotels and restaurants in Ecuador and indeed around the world.
To see Fork-tailed Storm-Petrels, take a pelagic bird watching trip into deep waters off the northern Pacific coast (northern California through Alaska). Such trips usually last from early morning until late afternoon and are a great way to see many species of seabirds including albatrosses, shearwaters, petrels, storm-petrels, and jaegers. (Bring warm clothing and seasickness medication.)
Toothfish are an important groundfish fishery in many temperate regions of the southern hemisphere, often targeted with demersal longlines. However, these latitudes are also important habitats for seabirds, particularly the threatened and endangered albatrosses and petrels that nest on remote southern islands and coastlines and feed in the open ocean. This overlap led to frequent interactions between seabirds and the fishery which historically resulted in high bycatch mortality rates that negatively impacted albatross and petrel populations.
After an assessment of the fishery in pursuit of MSC certification, fishers agreed to fish at night, shifting set and haul times to after dark. In addition, multiple other mitigation methods were implemented (weighted branch lines, bird scaring lines, and seasonal closures to name a few) in conjunction with night sets to further decrease fishery impacts on albatross and petrels. The results were dramatic. Albatross bycatch was nearly eliminated while petrel bycatch was greatly reduced. This reduction was especially important around the remote Kerguelen Islands which are an important breeding ground for multiple petrels. The toothfish demersal longline fishery in Kerguelen seas managed a reduction in grey petrel bycatch mortality from a minimum of 750 individuals in 2005 to only 3 documented in 2014-15.
Whether you go with a LSA or a heavier certified or experimental aircraft, the best amphibious aircraft will be the aircraft best suited for your mission and budget. This article will evaluate some of the amphibious aircraft on the market today, and explore their strengths and weaknesses.
Your unique mission should always be considered. Who will you be flying with? Where will you be going most of the time? Is an amphibious aircraft really the best choice? If you will be landing at an airport most of the time, it may make more sense to consider a land-based aircraft with normal landing gear.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is reopening the comment period on its 2018 proposal to list the black-capped petrel as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). We are reopening the comment period to present significant new information received since the 2018 proposed listing that is relevant to consideration of the status of the species. During this 30-day comment period, we encourage those who may have commented previously to submit additional comments, if appropriate. be457b7860
