Virginia Aquarium Bird Species

I visited my friend in Virginia Beach, VA in early February 2023. On Feb. 5th we went on the aquarium's Atlantic Explorer boat, which gives whale-spotting tours. We saw quite a few birds (along with the fins and backs of bottlenose dolphins and a fin whale! The guides believed it to be a juvenile fin whale) but I wasn't able to capture good photos. So here is a list of seabirds seen:
brown pelican
juvenile bald eagle
double crested cormorant
great blue heron
northern gannet
bufflehead
egret (spp?)
