Hi Nik & Dan,

You list seeing only one Chatham Albatross on your Eaglehawk pelagic on 3 September (see below) and none on 4 September but it appears to me that Raja photographed two! One is a typical bird with virtually the whole of the mandibular unguis black but the other has very little black there. So at a distance the bill would appear wholly yellow. Have I properly understood? Your comments please.
