Cool sighting. Noticed they've set up shop at the Nados a few weeks ago. Awesome to hear they're at the Jewel.

We came across a small group of Brown Boobies on a 1.5 day trip last month. First time I've ever seen those guys in local waters.

The only Boobies I look at, don't have feathers and are usually on the beach when landing.

1 booby on the water but plenty on the beach. No blue feet, brown booby I'd guess. The nados ate where I first started seeing em. If you see one dive you'll know what it is. They hit the water so hard and fast you think they're trying yo kill the ocean. We might see a frigate bird by the end of the summer. Right up there with the booby is a small song bird call the "Great Tit". Mike

Apparently, there's also the red-footed booby (sula sula). What a hoot ☉☉

About to say...if we see a frigate bird in SoCal this summer, we know El Niño Grandote is here.
