Hi Naturerecordists members, I didn't realize members of this list may not =
be able to access files on the Naturerecording list, so have created the sa=
me folder in "files" on this site. Sorry for the oversight.
Aloha,
David

May to record other species' colonies (Laysan and Black-foot Albatross, an=

irm the heard sound and head in that direction. The active nest of this spe=
