Event Remarks Viewing Conditions: I watched most of the time the bird was standing on the rocky island with a Kowa TSN-4 telescope (20-60X zoom) at a distance of 125 feet. The day was mostly sunny and I was looking west. When in flight, I used Swift Audubon binoculars (8.5 X 44) mostly looking west at distances of 75-300 feet.
