"And IIIIIIIIIIIII-e-IIIIIIIII will always love you!"
Today feels like the perfect day to sing a love ballad for this common murre in Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. The Common Murre is a wing-propelled diving seabird, capable of diving to depths exceeding 650 feet. Murres rarely come to shore, except to breed on offshore islands such as the Farallon Islands and islets off Point Reyes National Seashore! (Photo: Douglas Croft.
