Pigeon Guillemot (Cepphus columba) - 31May2021

The Pigeon Guillemot is basically the Pacific Ocean's version of our Black Guillemot.  The only real difference at first glance is a dark bar across the base of the greater coverts which is more easily seen on a bird in flight.   A Black Guillemot's white white patch is usually unmarked.  These photos were taken from shore in Yachats, OR.
