Hi. Caitlin
Robinson, Roy Churchwell, Sherry Hudson and I (San Francisco Bay Bird
Observatory) visited the Alviso Marina in search of the
Blue-footed booby at 3:45 p.m. When we arrived, we saw the booby
diving over pond A11. We watched this bird feeding (diving) for
approximately 10 minutes. The bird appeared to be immature with a white belly
and some white visible under the wings. The bird moved on to the next pond
(A10) where it proceeded to feed for a few minutes. By the time we reached pond
A10 the bird had disappeared.
I hope that
others get a chance to see it. What a fantastic bird!
(Note: Clyde Morris
from USFWS reported the bird to us. USGS originally found the
bird.)
