SOSSA Pelagic - 28th March 2009 - Red-Footed Booby

[B Whylie <>]

On the 28th of March SOSSA pelagic trip out of Wollongong ( a full trip 
report will be posted) we observed a Red-Footed Booby. It gave us a 
couple of passes about 26km due east of Wollongong Harbour. This was the 
first sighting of a Red-Footed Booby on the Wollongong trip.
I was interested if anyone had records of Red-Footed Boobies in NSW, 
especially as far south as Wollongong? I know there have been a few, 
such as the Central Coast bird in 1998 and another beach washed on the 
South Coast, but any further reports would be great.
Thanks

Brook
