There were thousands of these birds flying toward Malibu today. According to bird expert Dan Cooper of LACoBirds Yahoo Group:
“I was there and these were Black-vented Shearwaters massing off Will Rogers State Beach. 100s or low 1000s. This is by far the most and largest number I’ve seen inshore so far this year, and it was amazing. Pelicans diving just a few meters offshore too. Spectacular.”
