With records of Brown Boobies surging over the past decade we have also seen an increase in Masked Booby and have dreamt of a Red-footed Booby for the state. The ever-vigilant Suzanne Sullivan was the one to find this one, passing southward at close range past Halibut Point while one of her party was taking a bio break!
