Gooday Birders

Visited Nobbies Breakwater for an hour or so today (20.3.06) at about
lunchtime. Overcast, fresh breeze and warm. Saw the following birds -

Australian Gannet, immature, several of
Large Black Cormorant
Little Black Cormorant
Pelican
Silver Gull
Darter
Crested Tern
Wedge-tailed Shearwater, moving south in dribs and drabs
Little Penguin
Pomarine Jaeger, not absolutely sure, about 4 approximately, 300-400m to
the north east off the end of the breakwater, harassing the shearwaters.
While I could see a distinct darker cap on the crown of their heads I
could not detect the extended tail feathers. Also appeared to have
lighter patches on the upper wings and a lighter rump/tail area? They
were bigger and stockier than the shearwaters.

This is my first bird observation list onto the birding-aus site, so
please bear with me if I muck it up.

Greg
