Black-bellied Storm Petrels off Sydney.

["Paul Walbridge" <>]

Hi All, I've never been quite able to work out how Black-bellied Storm Petrels 
are so rarely seen off Wollongong/Sydney when just a few hundred kilometres to 
the north in SEQ waters one is virtually guaranteed to see them anytime June - 
November. I'm not talking in ones or twos either, up to 33 in a day. Just to 
the south of Wollongong off of Ulladulla (admittedly in very deep water) on two 
October trips in a row we encountered quite large numbers of the species. 
Cheers - Paul W.
