Hi Phil,
I'm not sure if anyone has replied to you, so I've sent this to the list
as well.
I have a copy of Nelson's/The Sulidae - Gannets and Boobies,
/which//gives the mean of the wing for Abbot's Booby as Male - 449mm and
Female 461mm.
He devotes about 50 pages to Abbot's Booby, so let me know if you need
anything further.
Cheers,
Brook

A left-field query here- I have been going over my final drafts of the
long-gestating New Guinea Field Guide and found I'd omitted Abbot's Booby which
is a vagrant to W Papua. Now I have the account written, BUT, I am unable to
find the wingspan. It's the largest of the family, I have length of 79 cm and
weight, but no-one has wingspan- not HBW, not HANZAB, not Seabirds
Photographic, not BirdLife fact sheet- any ideas?
Thanks
Phil Gregory
