Monterey Bay Area Pelagic Trips reported Manx and Flesh-footed , Black-vented shearwaters, Black-footed Albatross, and Craveris' Murrelet. The water temps in Monterey Bay have been averaging 10 degrees F higher than normal. This is causing the colder water in the bay's deep trench to cease its normal upwelling. As a result, there is some concern that the birds will suffer due to lack of food. This is because the fish are diving deeper to obtain their own sustenance.--Peggi Rodgers <woodduck@cruzio.com>
