Hi all - well another new one for me today at Mistral Point. A White-Headed
Petrel from about 600m to 700m, going south. Long-winged pterodroma, all
grey wings (under and upper), white belly and white head. Also seen dozens
of Black-Browed, 3 Yellow-Nosed and 1 Shy Albatross, +10 Northern Giant
Petrel. No brown shearwaters, Fluttering or prions today. A bit odd has been
the dearth of Wandering Albatross this winter. Wind was strong easterly with
no rain. Cheers, Graham
