Just to clarify. I did not make the assumption that the 14 birds came from
Lord Howe. It was in the video that claimed Taronga Zoo reckoned they were
recently fledged Sooty Terns from the sandy beaches of LHI and brought in
by the wind. Actually I don't think these birds are going back to LHI as
the vet says they will take them "way off shore and release them"
