Tony,
SA is a bit far for me to go for a single pelagic. I was planning to go on the
Sydney pelagic this coming Saturday. However, skipper Hal just told me he
doesn't have enough starters.
Come on Sydney siders, now is the best chance you'll ever have to get Great
Shearwater on your county list!

Perhaps it would be worth conducting an extra pelagic from Port MacDonnell?
I do know that the next trip from there is scheduled for the 1st May but it
is fully booked. Would anyone be interested in a trip on Sunday 17th April?
If so please contact me directly. In the mean time I will attempt to get
some more information. If enough people are interested it would clearly be
worth the effort.
Regards,
Tony

A number of Great Shearwaters were seen off Portland on Sunday 3rd April on
the monthly BOCA pelagic. A full report will be coming out soon but I
thought it worth alerting the birding community. Possibly 8 individuals were
seen and up to 6 at one time. They approached and settled when burlying.
The first bird was seen a few km south of Lawrence Rocks and the main group
out at the continental shelf edge. Anecdotal evidence from the skipper is
that similar birds have been seen recently just off Lawrence Rocks.
