Pomarine Jaeger (Stercorarius pomarinus)

These, the most numerous jaegers off Oregon, are slightly smaller than Herring Gulls. Gull-like and graceful, these piratical birds steal food from smaller seabirds. They come in a bewildering array of light and dark individuals, confounded by age and sexual differences.

The Pomarine Jaeger is an uncommon spring and fairly common fall transient offshore 2-50 miles, following shearwaters. Sightings have been centered near the continental shelf edge. They are occasionally observed from shore in fall.
