Abstract
We present standardized, quantitative information on the avifauna of the Drake Passage obtained during six crossings between Patagonia and the South Shetland Islands during the summer–autumn period, 1998–2020. We compare inter-annual and seasonal patterns of species occurrence, adding to previous, published surveys, and we discuss species association with the different zones and water masses of the region.
