Hawaii (Kona)

Apr. 28, 2018 Kona pelagic, Hawaii Island

6:50-13:50
Rainy with occasional cloudy

We joined the Kona pelagic trip arranged by Alex Wang. It was little rough sea condition and some scenes were difficult to observe. However we were happy to see a couple of Hawaiian Petrels. If we have a next chance, we want to see Hawaiian (Band-rumped) Storm Petrel and Newell’s Shearwater.
