Masked/Nazca Booby

Between 6:45 and 6:50 a.m. this morning an immature Masked or Nazca Booby flew South past La Jolla. In case anyone reads this while standing in imperial Beach… The bird was especially good-sized and the bill looked dull greeny yellow, so it certainly was not an obvious Nazca, but it may be too young to identify with any certainty. A couple ashy storm-petrels continue, otherwise very very few birds.
