Shearwaters in Hobart - species?

["EDWIN VELLA" <>]

Hi Koren

I think they were most likely Short-tailed Shearwaters - the most common
Shearwater in Tassie. I saw plenty of those when I was down there and at
their breeding grounds in Bruny Island. Sooty Shearwaters are less common as
I am aware in Australian waters but are more common in NZ.
