Sea Day - Wildlife - Chile

Today was a Sea Day off the coast of Chile on our way to Lima, Peru.
We spent most of the day on deck watching for wildlife and say just birds. These included Franklins Gulls and Peruvian Diving Petrols. There were over a thousand of the gulls around the ship in the morning and in the afternoon we saw the petrols. Our bird specialist on board, Jeff, was having a great day observing, counting and recording the number and species of birds for his worldwide scientific birding group / app. No hammerhead sharks or sea lions today. Maybe we are out of their territory.
Tomorrow dock in Lima for our trip to Machu Picchu! Yeah!Read more
