Seabirds and Marine Mammals with 7 Seas Whale Watch

Description

Enjoy a summer morning looking for seabirds and marine mammals aboard the 7 Seas Whale Watch vessel, the Privateer IV. The ocean waters off the coast of Massachusetts attract large numbers of bird species including shearwaters, cormorants, storm-petrels, gannets, gulls, terns, and the occasional jaeger. Marine mammals feeding in the offshore waters include the endangered Humpback and Finback whales. While aboard, Scott Santino will join participants on deck to point out interesting bird sightings, and Captain Jay Frontierro will narrate from the wheel the marine wildlife we see.
