4th Sea Day on our way to Cabo

The Ancient Greek as well as modern ornithologists have identified specific species that travel routes which are thousands of miles from feeding to breeding waters. Highly adapted to marine life, seabirds flying over water for months feed on krill or fish that swim near the surface. Migrating birds can dive as deep as 100 feet below the surface if the water to catch squid, or survive by foraging for food along the coast. Some follow the ships and feed on fish disturbed in the wake of the ships. The Arctic tern boasts one of the longest migrations routes of any bird, flying between the Arctic and the Antarctic each year. Few birds cover the miles of the Sooty Shearwater. It also flies between polar regions, but during the summer, they follow the warm weather, flying quite remarkably some 40,000 miles in a year from New Zealand to Japan then over to Alaska and California. Clearly, these birds prefer to be on the move.
