Hi all, There has not been enough interest to try to get an impromptu Albany
trip going, so I'm moving on to organising the 'scheduled' trips out of Albany
for later in the year. We have planned a weekend of trips for the 4th and 5th
of May this year, departing Emu Point Boat Harbour in Albany. As always, the
trips are run on a cost-share basis - the cost is expected to be $150 per
person (per trip) with a full boat of 18 people, increasing if we do not fill
the boat (e.g. to $180 with 15 people). We have not run trips at this time of
year for a while, but the skipper has suggested this is usually when he has the
highest bird numbers around the boat, so hopefully there will be something
interesting. We hope to see the usual albatrosses, petrels and shearwaters,
plus of course hopefully something more exciting (as always, unfortunately not
guaranteed!). The only previous May trip (in 2004) yielded Black-bellied
Storm-Petrel, Kerguelen Petrel and Arctic Tern. Anyone interested
in booking a place, please contact me - preferably by e-mail at this address,
but if required you can call my mobile (0424 008 179) Cheers,John
