Also present were royal and wandering albatross, white-chinned petrel, greater and sooty shearwater and Wilson's storm petrel.
All in all, a great day for watching seabirds that make their living borne upon the winds, covering vast areas of the ocean. At one point the prions (also known as whale birds) were alongside the ship by the thousands and we also spotted the blows of several fin whales in the distance.
