This gallery contains pictures taken from 3 pelagic trips (Brian Patteson), one on board the "Stormy Petrel" sailed out from Hatteras and 2 on board the "Country Girl" sailed out from Manteo. In between the pelagic trips, we did land birding around Outer Banks and Alligator River NWR.
I went on 1 pelagic trip with Brian Patteson many years ago [I HIGHLY recommend his trips and would go again if we didn't live so darned far away (Alaska)], but that was before I took up photography. Nice to see what you captured on those trips with a Canon 20D, as I shoot the same now... Nice job!
