Hi folks

I was just having a look at the SGPetrel section in HANZAB. There are several other names for the bird, and I would like to know how they came about. Some are obvious.

The ones I'm interested in are:
Mother Carey's or Sea Goose
Nelly
Stinker
Stinkpot
Bone-shaker

Can anyone help?

Cheers
Anthony
