Offshore surprises: new at-sea bird records for Suriname (2013–2015)

Abstract: Bird observations were collected from various types of survey vessels in Suriname's territorial waters between 2013 and 2015. Dedicated, effort-related surveys were carried out from geophysical seismic survey vessels within an area located 80-110 km offshore (in 2013) and 165-290 km (in 2015). Opportunistic observations were recorded during fisheries surveys on a shrimp trawler operating along the 30 m depth contour, approximately 40-60 km offshore (in 2014). In total, 10 bird (sub-)species were observed durin… Show more

“…Non-breeders disperse to the western Atlantic during the summer and autumn (Haney & McGillivary, 1985;Gonzalez-Solis et al, 2007;Dias et al, 2011). This long-distant migrant can winter on the southwest Atlantic coast, as reflected in our study and others (De Boer, 2014;Willems et al, 2017).…”
