This jaeger had just swooped down and killed a Red-necked Phalarope. I was able to run across the tundra and plop down across a small pond from the bird and watch it eat. Here you can see it plucking the feathers. So strange to think that these birds are at home in Caribbean waters during the winter and the high arctic during summer.

Another photo showing the large use by the finnish army of bycicles for individual soldier transport, in WWII.
It was very efficient in this kind of terrain.
I was walking along the beach at Higbee Beach this morning when I saw a dark gull flying overhead. I knew something was different about it but it wasn't until it was almost too late that I realized the general shape was wrong. I snapped a couple of quick pictures (this was the best), and I'm thinking this might be a lifer Parasitic Jaeger.
Anyone who can confirm?
A wonderful pelagic trip yesterday with Alvaro Jaramillo and a bevy of birders. This Jaeger was one of the highlights (see Matthew Dodder's sketch), as well as a Laysan Albatross, a Southern Polar Skua, and a Yellow-billed Loon (plus ABA photolifer #503 for me - Ashy Storm Petrel). As I said, a wonderful trip!
