Pelagic Trip and Loch Ness Monster Revealed!

We experienced our first and last pelagic trip off of the Oregon coast on August 14th. It was an 11 hour ordeal with no visible horizon and both Kadie and I spent entirely too much time with our heads overboard. We mainly wanted to see albatross, which we saw plenty of once we were 35 miles off the coast. Here are a few pics:

On our way back to shore I noticed something in the water that reminded me of the Loch Ness Moster:

After a while I realized that I was looking at a partially submerged Cormorant:

definite likeness to Nessie, just sayin'....
