Local Notes
- Glacier Bay/Black-footed Albatross: Most often seen in Cross Sound and off the outer coast of the park. (edit)
- Haines/Black-footed Albatross: Not known to occur (edit)
- Juneau/Black-footed Albatross: Not known to occur (edit)
- Ketchikan/Black-footed Albatross: Not known to occur (edit)
- Sitka/Black-footed Albatross: Accidental along the road system. Reports were from the harbor area, so it's likely the birds came in aboard vessels that had been off-shore. Fairly Common on the continental shelf in summer, they are occasionally observed just inside Sitka Sound. Fisherman report seeing them routinely within 3 or 4 miles of Cape Edgecumbe during the summer season. (edit)
