Hi,
 
One or two observers are needed to go aboard a ship operating in the Otway basin over Xmas, New Year and a little time (perhaps two weeks) thereafter. Sorry to clutter birding-aus with this request but I figure it will be of considerable interest to some.
 
The work will be in the continental slope region. It will concentrate on cetaceans but I am thinking that the seabirds are likely to be pretty interesting for anyone on this forum as well - perhaps a good chance of getting Light Mantled Sooty Albatross on your list!
 
A knowledge of identifying Blue Whales and other cetaceans will be particularly useful.
 
If you are interested yourself or know anyone else who may be interested, please contact me immediately on 03 9762 2616. Remuneration will be in the order of about $300 / day.
 
Cheers,
 
Simon.
