Also late this afternoon, close to sunset, very hazy ... There was a group of 45-50 smallish dumpy seabirds about a kilometer off the beach. They would head in one direction, then wheel around and head in the other. They did this for a few turns then headed westwards. Flight usually began with fast wingbeats followed by short glides very low over water. Some birds landed briefly. White contrasting with darker grey, but I couldn't pick up any clearer markings. Fairy Prion? Or too hard to call? _______________________________________________ Birding-Aus mailing list To change settings or unsubscribe visit: http://birding-aus.org/mailman/listinfo/birding-aus_birding-aus.org |
