Hi Peter and Evan,

There were another 4 this morning - 2 as I arrived (seen by David Mitford
but I missed them), 1 juvenile in front of the cliff (seen by both of us)
and 1 adult seen by myself at 9.45am.

David Mitford will be down there from about 4pm and I'll be there from
4.30pm.

Given how wind-dependent Sooty Tern sightings are (need NE strong winds and
preferably rain)it is unlikely that there will be any on Saturday.

Cheers,

Evan,
(I'm going down this arvo).
You'd have to be lucky to find them roosting here........but, you've got to
be in it to win it.
Every 2nd Saturday there are pelagic trips out of Sydney - this time last
year we had views of Sootys. You might consider that?? Anyway, look at:-

Good luck,
