Wandering Albatross off Oregon

This (http://www.pbase.com/gregbirder/20080913) is huge in every sense of the word, although occurring in more predictable circumstances than the first one (http://elibrary.unm.edu/sora/Auk/v085n03/p0502-p0504.pdf).

Hi Alex, intriguing that a large albatross is present in the north atlantic. Am I right in thinking Wandering Albatross has reached the WP before?

Oregon is on the Pacific Coast of North America so the wanderer is certainly NOT in the Atlantic.

Phenomenal sighting. Maybe I should book myself on the upcoming Oct pelagic out of San Diego...
