Hi all,
 
Did you know that about a month ago Rebecca Boulton found (part of) a petrel in Gluepot? The specimen was sent to the museum of Vic where they identified it as a Kerguelen Petrel. It is now being held by the SA Museum. It was foul weather for a few days mid-september so the bird must have been blown inland- for about 250 kms!
 
Cheers
