Pomarine Jaeger from St. Paul Island, AK
Parasitic Jaeger from St. Paul Island, AK
Long-tailed Jaeger from St. Paul Island, AK
I had a request for a summary as of today (Sept. 16th) of this year's jaeger numbers. The highest number of jaegers recorded during any fall waterbird count is 53 in 2000 so the tally of 44 so far this year is well on its way to setting a new mark. The breakdown is
Parasitic: 15
Long-tailed: 2
Unidentified: 27
Also note that there have been at least 1 Pomarine, 1 Parasitic, and a few unidentified Jaegers seen in the afternoon or evening after the count.
